KARA PESOLA appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Community Health Nurse Practitioner provider at 47 CONGRESS ST, SALEM, MA, 01970, with a listed phone of (978) 744-8388. NPI 1326495151 was issued on 05/23/2016. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what PESOLA 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 4,231 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 467 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $560K in drug spend, split 14% brand-name and 86% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 3.1%. 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.

Community Health Nurse Practitioner is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 438 enrolled providers across 46 states and an average of 1,370 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.
