JULIA CARTAYA, M.D. appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Pediatric Endocrinology Physician provider holding M.D. credentials at 1465 S GRAND BLVD, SAINT LOUIS, MO, 63104, with a listed phone of (314) 577-5648. NPI 1194989475 was issued on 07/15/2008. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what CARTAYA 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 13 prescription claims written by this provider, covering N/A Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $97 in drug spend, split 92% brand-name and 8% 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 81.5711/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 76.0913, Cost 54.2831), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Pediatric Endocrinology Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 1,457 enrolled providers across 51 states and an average of 151 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.
