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).

MICHELE LI CAUSI, RD, ARNP, FNP-C, CDE appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Registered Dietitian provider holding RD, ARNP, FNP-C, CDE credentials at 2720 S 6TH AVE, TUCSON, AZ, 85713, with a listed phone of (520) 475-5418. NPI 1710600663 was issued on 09/26/2022.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 600 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 293 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $52K in drug spend.

Important: PlainDoctor is a directory of publicly available government data, not medical advice, a malpractice database, or a quality rating.
