Laurie Arena, MSW, NP, RN appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Social Worker provider holding MSW, NP, RN credentials at 2670 DURHAM CHAPEL HILL BLVD, Durham, NC, 27707, with a listed phone of (844) 866-1166. NPI 1255453007 was issued on 04/04/2007. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what Arena 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 805 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 34 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $338K in drug spend, split 14% brand-name and 86% 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.

Social Worker is a high-volume specialty nationwide, with 139,752 enrolled providers across 54 states and an average of 1,486 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.
