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).

DOUGLAS BILINSKI, M.D. appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Dermatology Physician provider holding M.D. credentials at 9 WASHINGTON AVE, HAMDEN, CT, 06518, with a listed phone of (203) 281-6678. NPI 1417009044 was issued on 01/16/2007.
