KURT KOVALOVICH, DPM appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Primary Podiatric Medicine Podiatrist provider holding DPM credentials at 185 S TULPEHOCKEN ST, PINE GROVE, PA, 17963, with a listed phone of (570) 345-6301. NPI 1316945496 was issued on 07/12/2005. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what KOVALOVICH 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 164 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 66 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $2K in drug spend, split 20% brand-name and 80% generic by claim count. 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. On the CMS Merit-based Incentive Payment System, this provider earned a Final Score of 0/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 0), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Primary Podiatric Medicine Podiatrist is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 1,077 enrolled providers across 50 states and an average of 322 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.
