20 Medicare Part D claims.
CMS lists these Part D claims under this NPI, but the provider type reported to NPPES (mental health counselor) is not one that prescribes. The claims may be attributed to the wrong NPI in the CMS file, or the NPPES taxonomy may be out of date; PlainDoctor does not compare them with other providers.
