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).

Lekita Nance Scott, NURSE PRACTITIONER appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Licensed Practical Nurse provider holding NURSE PRACTITIONER credentials at 2000 LEE RD STE 215, Cleveland Heights, OH, 44118, with a listed phone of (216) 541-1992. NPI 1831317874 was issued on 04/23/2007.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 361 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 34 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $25K in drug spend, with an opioid prescribing rate of 5.3%.

Licensed Practical Nurse is a high-volume specialty nationwide, with 71,357 enrolled providers across 55 states and an average of 1,004 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.
