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).

MASHRAFI AHMED, M.D appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Internal Medicine Physician provider holding M.D credentials at 2 MEDICAL CENTER DR STE 410, SPRINGFIELD, MA, 01107, with a listed phone of (413) 781-5735. NPI 1265759328 was issued on 04/29/2010.
