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).

Jennifer Holton, MD appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Child & Adolescent Psychiatry Physician provider holding MD credentials at 40 DUKE MEDICINE CIR, Durham, NC, 27710, with a listed phone of (919) 684-8111. NPI 1457527327 was issued on 05/01/2008. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what Holton 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 Child & Adolescent Psychiatry Physician providers operate outside Part D entirely. On the CMS Merit-based Incentive Payment System, this provider earned a Final Score of 92.3/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 73.8), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Child & Adolescent Psychiatry Physician is a mid-sized specialty nationwide, with 6,160 enrolled providers across 54 states and an average of 600 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.

  • Weigh a second option: compare this provider with a nearby Child & Adolescent Psychiatry Physician peer on Medicare volume and prescribing patterns. Compare providers

Medicare Part D and MIPS figures describe practice patterns in federal programs only, they are not quality ratings, and PlainDoctor does not rate, rank, or recommend providers.
