MATTHEW BAKER, PHARMD, PA-C appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Pharmacist provider holding PHARMD, PA-C credentials at 40 OKATIE CENTER BLVD S STE 350, OKATIE, SC, 29909, with a listed phone of (843) 706-2255. NPI 1619396223 was issued on 04/10/2014. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what BAKER 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 3,081 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 868 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $688K in drug spend, with an opioid prescribing rate of 0.9%. 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. On the CMS Merit-based Incentive Payment System, this provider earned a Final Score of 16.0421/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 0, Cost 53.4738), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Pharmacist is a high-volume specialty nationwide, with 290,447 enrolled providers across 56 states and an average of 135 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.
