NEGIN SALIMI, D.O. appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Hospice and Palliative Medicine (Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation) Physician provider holding D.O. credentials at 4311 3RD AVE, SAN DIEGO, CA, 92103, with a listed phone of (619) 688-1600. NPI 1326215815 was issued on 05/13/2008. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what SALIMI 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 828 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 145 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $63K in drug spend, split 11% brand-name and 89% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 38.5%. 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.

Hospice and Palliative Medicine (Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation) Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 96 enrolled providers across 31 states and an average of 3,130 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.

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.
