How MIPS and board certification work

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).

Katrina Zahorik, MSN, APRN, AGACNP-BC appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Lactation Consultant (Registered Nurse) provider holding MSN, APRN, AGACNP-BC credentials at 7200 CAMBRIDGE ST FL 10, Houston, TX, 77030, with a listed phone of (713) 798-1750. NPI 1063912764 was issued on 02/19/2018.

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 Lactation Consultant (Registered Nurse) providers operate outside Part D entirely. On the CMS Merit-based Incentive Payment System, this provider earned a Final Score of 91.3/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 81.6), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Lactation Consultant (Registered Nurse) is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 3,825 enrolled providers across 53 states and an average of 560 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.
