Iyengar Malini, M.D. appears in the CMS NPPES registry as an Addiction Psychiatry Physician provider holding M.D. credentials at 8329 BRIMHALL ROAD, Bakersfield, CA, 93312, with a listed phone of (661) 431-1555. NPI 1699842633 was issued on 11/28/2006.

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 Addiction Psychiatry Physician providers operate outside Part D entirely. On the CMS Merit-based Incentive Payment System, this provider earned a Final Score of 91.5/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 57, Cost 100), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Addiction Psychiatry Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 666 enrolled providers across 49 states and an average of 792 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.
