LINDSEY TENGERSTROM, M.D. appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Pediatric Hematology & Oncology Physician provider holding M.D. credentials at 7110 WEST 127TH STREET, PALOS HEIGHTS, IL, 60463, with a listed phone of (708) 923-6300. NPI 1972846152 was issued on 04/05/2013. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what TENGERSTROM 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 193 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 41 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $12K in drug spend, split 20% brand-name and 80% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 8.8%. 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.

Pediatric Hematology & Oncology Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 2,568 enrolled providers across 52 states and an average of 92 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.

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.
