John Meier, M.D. appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Gastroenterology Physician provider holding M.D. credentials at 415 N CENTER ST, Hickory, NC, 28601, with a listed phone of (828) 328-3300. NPI 1043274244 was issued on 04/14/2006.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 1,491 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 525 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $1.1 million in drug spend, split 29% brand-name and 71% generic by claim count. On the CMS Merit-based Incentive Payment System, this provider carries a Final Score of 75/100 for the 2023 performance year, but CMS published no Quality, Promoting Interoperability, Improvement Activity or Cost score: this is the neutral performance threshold CMS assigns where nothing was scored, so it is not comparable with clinicians whose score was measured.

Gastroenterology Physician is a mid-sized specialty nationwide, with 16,601 enrolled providers across 54 states and an average of 833 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.
