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).

JUAN ACOSTA, MD is a Pediatric Surgery Physician provider practicing in PHOENIX, Arizona, according to the CMS National Plan and Provider Enumeration System (NPPES). Credentials: MD. NPI: 1467423772.

JUAN ACOSTA, MD appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Pediatric Surgery Physician provider holding MD credentials at 1919 E THOMAS RD, PHOENIX, AZ, 85016, with a listed phone of (602) 933-1000. NPI 1467423772 was issued on 01/27/2006.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 8,515 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 550 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $651K in drug spend, split 10% brand-name and 90% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 0.8%.

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.
