GERALD LEWIS, CNS, BC appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Psychiatric/Mental Health Clinical Nurse Specialist provider holding CNS, BC credentials at 9120 CONNECTICUT ST STE A, MERRILLVILLE, IN, 46410, with a listed phone of (219) 793-1233. NPI 1639279177 was issued on 09/24/2006. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what LEWIS most recently submitted to CMS rather than a vetted directory listing, which is why patients should always confirm the practice is still at this location before scheduling.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 8,962 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 491 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $1.5 million in drug spend, split 9% brand-name and 91% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 0.3%. These figures capture only Medicare Part D — commercial insurance, Medicaid, and cash-pay prescriptions are not included, and any drug-beneficiary cell under 11 is suppressed by CMS for patient privacy.

Psychiatric/Mental Health Clinical Nurse Specialist is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 980 enrolled providers across 50 states and an average of 1,050 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.

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.
