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).

MARGARET GLORIA, M.D. appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Hospice and Palliative Medicine (Internal Medicine) Physician provider holding M.D. credentials at 3440 S JEFFERSON ST, FALLS CHURCH, VA, 22041, with a listed phone of (703) 578-7108. NPI 1497000533 was issued on 07/15/2012.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 175 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 69 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $18K in drug spend, with an opioid prescribing rate of 8.6%.

Hospice and Palliative Medicine (Internal Medicine) Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 1,524 enrolled providers across 51 states and an average of 1,275 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.
