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).

Israel Alvarado, MD appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Clinical Genetics (M.D.) Physician provider holding MD credentials at 2031 MCDANIEL ST STE 250, North Las Vegas, NV, 89030, with a listed phone of (702) 649-9070. NPI 1427096569 was issued on 06/02/2006. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what Alvarado 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 12,811 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 1,005 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $2.2 million in drug spend, split 17% brand-name and 82% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 1.6%. 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.

Clinical Genetics (M.D.) Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 825 enrolled providers across 50 states and an average of 261 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.

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 Nevada medical board — federal registration is not a license check. Credential verification guide
  • Weigh a second option: compare this provider with a nearby Clinical Genetics (M.D.) Physician peer on Medicare volume and prescribing patterns. Compare providers
