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).

LINDA SHELEK, RNC, MSN, CFNP, WHNP appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Obstetrics & Gynecology Nurse Practitioner provider holding RNC, MSN, CFNP, WHNP credentials at 30 MEDICAL PARK, WHEELING, WV, 26003, with a listed phone of (304) 242-0588. NPI 1578500351 was issued on 06/01/2006.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 100 prescription claims written by this provider, covering N/A Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $5K in drug spend. 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.

Obstetrics & Gynecology Nurse Practitioner is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 2,864 enrolled providers across 52 states and an average of 232 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.
