MICHAEL DOLEN, DPM appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Foot & Ankle Surgery Podiatrist provider holding DPM credentials at 1365 WASHINGTON AVE, ALBANY, NY, 12206, with a listed phone of (518) 489-4704. NPI 1588960165 was issued on 01/31/2011. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what DOLEN 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 349 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 127 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $25K in drug spend, split 3% brand-name and 97% generic by claim count. 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 76.7003/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 77.9602, Cost 61.0409), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Foot & Ankle Surgery Podiatrist is a mid-sized specialty nationwide, with 8,920 enrolled providers across 53 states and an average of 309 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.
