Specialty board-certified rate — Acute Care Nurse Practitioner estimate
Board certification through an ABMS or AOA member board signals voluntary post-licensure examination plus Maintenance of Certification cycles. CMS does not publish a per-provider board-certification field; the figure shown is the specialty-level estimated rate from ABMS / AOA reference data.
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).
LEAH KEEL, APN appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Acute Care Nurse Practitioner provider holding APN credentials at 3343 SPRINGHILL DR, NORTH LITTLE ROCK, AR, 72117, with a listed phone of (501) 975-7676. NPI 1811236789 was issued on 02/12/2013.
