JOSE ALCANTAR appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Nutrition Education Nutritionist provider at 1615 SWEETWATER RD STE D, NATIONAL CITY, CA, 91950, with a listed phone of (619) 474-2233. NPI 1871886382 was issued on 05/17/2011. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what ALCANTAR 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 3,447 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 569 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $532K in drug spend, split 19% brand-name and 81% 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 27.9349/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 0, Cost 93.1164), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Nutrition Education Nutritionist is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 2,223 enrolled providers across 54 states and an average of 1,267 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.

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.
