MICHAEL MENOWSKY, M.D. appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Critical Care Medicine (Anesthesiology) Physician provider holding M.D. credentials at 301 W EXPRESSWAY 83, MCALLEN, TX, 78503, with a listed phone of (956) 632-4000. NPI 1629385208 was issued on 09/02/2010. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what MENOWSKY 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 166 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 140 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $14K in drug spend, with an opioid prescribing rate of 18.1%. 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 86.6123/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 73.4677), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Critical Care Medicine (Anesthesiology) Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 1,398 enrolled providers across 46 states and an average of 409 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.
