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).

JINA CHUNG, M.D. is a Dermatopathology (Pathology) Physician provider practicing in PHILADELPHIA, Pennsylvania, according to the CMS National Plan and Provider Enumeration System (NPPES). Credentials: M.D.. NPI: 1275910051. This profile includes practice location, specialty classification, and organizational affiliations from the CMS provider registry.

JINA CHUNG, M.D. appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Dermatopathology (Pathology) Physician provider holding M.D. credentials at 3400 CIVIC CENTER BLVD, PHILADELPHIA, PA, 19104, with a listed phone of (215) 662-2737. NPI 1275910051 was issued on 04/30/2015.
