HARISH THAKRAR, M.D. appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Therapeutic Radiology Physician provider holding M.D. credentials at 161 E CHICAGO AVE, CHICAGO, IL, 60611, with a listed phone of (312) 642-6006. NPI 1750391843 was issued on 08/09/2006. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what THAKRAR 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 prescribing data is not currently published for this NPI, which typically means the provider either wrote fewer than 11 Part D claims in the most recent reporting year, does not participate in Medicare, or practices in a specialty that rarely prescribes outpatient drugs. Absence of prescribing data is not a quality signal — many Therapeutic Radiology Physician providers operate outside Part D entirely. On the CMS Merit-based Incentive Payment System, this provider earned a Final Score of 84.5729/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 60.2504, Cost 67.0015), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Therapeutic Radiology Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 303 enrolled providers across 42 states and an average of 138 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.
