How MIPS and board certification work

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).

Nanda Kerkar, M.D. appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Transplant Surgery Physician provider holding M.D. credentials at 601 ELMWOOD AVE, Rochester, NY, 14642, with a listed phone of (585) 275-2647. NPI 1841251139 was issued on 03/28/2006.

Medicare Part D prescribing data is not currently published for this NPI, which typically means the provider either wrote fewer than 11 Part D claims in the most recent reporting year, does not participate in Medicare, or practices in a specialty that rarely prescribes outpatient drugs. Absence of prescribing data is not a quality signal, many Transplant Surgery Physician providers operate outside Part D entirely. On the CMS Merit-based Incentive Payment System, this provider earned a Final Score of 76.8/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 68.2, Cost 42.7), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Transplant Surgery Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 1,026 enrolled providers across 48 states and an average of 275 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.

Important: PlainDoctor is a directory of publicly available government data, not medical advice, a malpractice database, or a quality rating. Inclusion here does not imply a recommendation, and absence of complaints or sanctions on this page does not mean none exist, always verify credentials through the NPPES NPI Registry, your state medical board, and the ABMS or AOA before making healthcare decisions.

Before you book an appointment

  • Confirm the NPI record is current in the official CMS registry, providers update their own NPPES details, and moves can lag. Verify this NPI
  • Check the active license and any disciplinary history with the New York medical board, federal registration is not a license check. Credential verification guide
  • Weigh a second option: compare this provider with a nearby Transplant Surgery Physician peer on Medicare volume and prescribing patterns. Compare providers
