HERBERT NASSOUR, M. D. appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Physician provider holding M. D. credentials at 2101 PEASE ST, HARLINGEN, TX, 78550, with a listed phone of (956) 389-6565. NPI 1972506228 was issued on 05/31/2005. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what NASSOUR 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 136 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 58 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $2K in drug spend, with an opioid prescribing rate of 30.9%. 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. On the CMS Merit-based Incentive Payment System, this provider earned a Final Score of 81.4423/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 65.8349, Cost 49.2365), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 2,352 enrolled providers across 54 states and an average of 86 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.
