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).

Gordon Gold appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Specialist provider at 3104 UNIONVILLE RD, Cranberry Twp, PA, 16066, with a listed phone of (724) 772-2664. NPI 1336112960 was issued on 02/13/2006.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 12,689 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 1,289 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $856K in drug spend, split 8% brand-name and 91% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 1.0%.

Before you book an appointment

Use this federal record as your verification checklist, not as a recommendation.

  • Confirm the NPI record is current in the official CMS registry, providers update their own NPPES details, and moves can lag. Verify this NPI
  • Check the active license and any disciplinary history with the Pennsylvania medical board, federal registration is not a license check. Credential verification guide
  • Weigh a second option: compare this provider with a nearby Specialist peer on Medicare volume and prescribing patterns. Compare providers
