Board certification
Not published by CMS
CMS does not publish a per-provider board-certification field in NPPES. PlainDoctor does not have a reliable per-specialty certification rate to show for General Practice Physician. Verify directly:
How MIPS and board certification work
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).
Frank Romascavage, DO appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a General Practice Physician provider holding DO credentials at ROUTE 209, Brodheadsville, PA, 18322, with a listed phone of (570) 992-5500. NPI 1164535423 was issued on 08/17/2006.
Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 7,155 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 645 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $1.4 million in drug spend, split 21% brand-name and 76% generic by claim count.
General Practice Physician is a mid-sized specialty nationwide, with 16,725 enrolled providers across 56 states and an average of 2,872 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.
