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).

Frederick Jacobsen, MD appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Public Health & General Preventive Medicine Physician provider holding MD credentials at 908 NEW HAMPSHIRE AVE NW STE 700, Washington, DC, 20037, with a listed phone of (202) 234-1742. NPI 1235256827 was issued on 03/26/2007.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 998 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 47 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $80K in drug spend.
