JOHN BRANDSEMA, MD appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Neurology with Special Qualifications in Child Neurology Physician provider holding MD credentials at 3401 CIVIC CENTER BLVD, PHILADELPHIA, PA, 19104, with a listed phone of (215) 590-1719. NPI 1275889792 was issued on 08/02/2012. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what BRANDSEMA 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 51 prescription claims written by this provider, covering N/A Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $1.1 million in drug spend, split 67% brand-name and 33% generic by claim count. 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. On the CMS Merit-based Incentive Payment System, this provider earned a Final Score of 85.4852/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 73.6095), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Neurology with Special Qualifications in Child Neurology Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 1,803 enrolled providers across 51 states and an average of 359 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.
