The Merit-based Incentive Payment System (MIPS) scores providers 0–100 across four performance categories: Quality, Cost, Promoting Interoperability, and Improvement Activities, weighted under 42 CFR §414.1380. Reporting is voluntary for many small practices, so absence of a MIPS score is not a quality signal.

Board certification through an ABMS or AOA member board signals voluntary post-licensure examination plus continuous Maintenance of Certification cycles. Verify any individual provider's status through certificationmatters.org (ABMS) or osteopathic.org (AOA).

DEREK LADO, DO appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Neuromuscular Medicine (Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation) Physician provider holding DO credentials at 3351 EAGLE RUN DR NE, GRAND RAPIDS, MI, 49525, with a listed phone of (616) 325-1224. NPI 1932154192 was issued on 05/24/2006.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 2,169 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 144 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $123K in drug spend, split 2% brand-name and 98% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 61.8%.

Neuromuscular Medicine (Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation) Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 149 enrolled providers across 35 states and an average of 682 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline. Important: PlainDoctor is a directory of publicly available government data, not medical advice, a malpractice database, or a quality rating. Inclusion here does not imply a recommendation, and absence of complaints or sanctions on this page does not mean none exist — always verify credentials through the NPPES NPI Registry, your state medical board, and the ABMS or AOA before making healthcare decisions.
