Specialty board-certified rate — Psychiatric/Mental Health Nurse Practitioner estimate
Board certification through an ABMS or AOA member board signals voluntary post-licensure examination plus Maintenance of Certification cycles. CMS does not publish a per-provider board-certification field; the figure shown is the specialty-level estimated rate from ABMS / AOA reference data.
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).
KAREN BRADLEY, APRN appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Psychiatric/Mental Health Nurse Practitioner provider holding APRN credentials at 104 S FRONT AVE, PRESTONSBURG, KY, 41653, with a listed phone of (606) 886-8572. NPI 1114528536 was issued on 11/03/2020.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 2,070 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 150 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $331K in drug spend.

Psychiatric/Mental Health Nurse Practitioner is a mid-sized specialty nationwide, with 39,953 enrolled providers across 54 states and an average of 927 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.
