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).

ERIN RIVERA, PHD, CNS, APRN, BC appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Gerontology Clinical Nurse Specialist provider holding PHD, CNS, APRN, BC credentials at 415 E COOK RD, FORT WAYNE, IN, 46825, with a listed phone of (260) 489-6030. NPI 1790893147 was issued on 08/27/2006.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 2,922 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 85 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $474K in drug spend.

Gerontology Clinical Nurse Specialist is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 393 enrolled providers across 47 states and an average of 906 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.
