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).

JOCELYN LOTHO, NP is a School Nurse Practitioner provider practicing in LOS ANGELES, California, according to the CMS National Plan and Provider Enumeration System (NPPES). Credentials: NP. NPI: 1215914577. This profile includes practice location, specialty classification, and organizational affiliations from the CMS provider registry. Provider information is self-reported to CMS and updated monthly.

JOCELYN LOTHO, NP appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a School Nurse Practitioner provider holding NP credentials at 1430 SAN JULIAN ST # 2, LOS ANGELES, CA, 90015, with a listed phone of (213) 765-2821. NPI 1215914577 was issued on 12/28/2005.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 124 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 21 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $71K in drug spend, split 50% brand-name and 50% generic by claim count.

School Nurse Practitioner is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 211 enrolled providers across 40 states and an average of 725 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.
