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).

NAVID FARAHBAKHSH is a MOHS-Micrographic Surgery Physician provider practicing in GAINESVILLE, Florida, according to the CMS National Plan and Provider Enumeration System (NPPES). NPI: 1780260208. This profile includes practice location, specialty classification, and organizational affiliations from the CMS provider registry. Provider information is self-reported to CMS and updated monthly.

NAVID FARAHBAKHSH appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a MOHS-Micrographic Surgery Physician provider at 1600 SW ARCHER ROAD, GAINESVILLE, FL, 32610, with a listed phone of (352) 594-1942. NPI 1780260208 was issued on 03/23/2021.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 236 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 119 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $83K in drug spend, split 8% brand-name and 92% generic by claim count.

MOHS-Micrographic Surgery Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 1,102 enrolled providers across 52 states and an average of 607 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.
