JOHN SCHIEFFELIN, MD appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Pediatric Infectious Diseases Physician provider holding MD credentials at 275 LASALLE ST, NEW ORLEANS, LA, 70112, with a listed phone of (504) 988-5030. NPI 1194995936 was issued on 03/07/2008. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what SCHIEFFELIN 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 363 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 23 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $706K in drug spend, split 52% brand-name and 48% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 5.5%. 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.

Pediatric Infectious Diseases Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 1,066 enrolled providers across 50 states and an average of 244 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.
