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).

KRISTIN FERGUSON, AGACNP-BC appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Acute Care Nurse Practitioner provider holding AGACNP-BC credentials at 4021 AVENUE B, SCOTTSBLUFF, NE, 69361, with a listed phone of (308) 635-3711. NPI 1720431646 was issued on 07/15/2016.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 113 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 79 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $2K in drug spend.

Important: PlainDoctor is a directory of publicly available government data, not medical advice, a malpractice database, or a quality rating.
