Melinda Talley, MD appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Pulmonary Disease Physician provider holding MD credentials at 169 ASHLEY AVE RM 202, Charleston, SC, 29425, with a listed phone of (843) 792-3167. NPI 1922637735 was issued on 04/03/2020. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what Talley 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 420 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 48 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $90K 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.

Pulmonary Disease Physician is a mid-sized specialty nationwide, with 9,271 enrolled providers across 53 states and an average of 1,457 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.
