Quality, Cost, Promoting Interoperability, and Improvement Activities composite score for the 2023 performance year. Specialty: Maternal Newborn Registered Nurse. Quality dim: 93.1713. Cost dim: 73.044.
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).
KATE CARR, CNM, MSN is a Maternal Newborn Registered Nurse provider practicing in NEW BRITAIN, Connecticut, according to the CMS National Plan and Provider Enumeration System (NPPES). Credentials: CNM, MSN. NPI: 1457863086. This profile includes practice location, specialty classification, and organizational affiliations from the CMS provider registry. Provider information is self-reported to CMS and updated monthly.
KATE CARR, CNM, MSN appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Maternal Newborn Registered Nurse provider holding CNM, MSN credentials at 85 LAFAYETTE ST, NEW BRITAIN, CT, 06051, with a listed phone of (860) 224-3642. NPI 1457863086 was issued on 11/05/2017. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what CARR 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 prescribing data is not currently published for this NPI, which typically means the provider either wrote fewer than 11 Part D claims in the most recent reporting year, does not participate in Medicare, or practices in a specialty that rarely prescribes outpatient drugs. Absence of prescribing data is not a quality signal — many Maternal Newborn Registered Nurse providers operate outside Part D entirely. On the CMS Merit-based Incentive Payment System, this provider earned a Final Score of 89.8646/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 93.1713, Cost 73.044), compared with the national average of 83.1.
Maternal Newborn Registered Nurse is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 811 enrolled providers across 50 states and an average of 290 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. 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.
