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).

NICHOLAS BAER, PA-C appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Student in an Organized Health Care Education/Training Program provider holding PA-C credentials at 2820 E PARK AVE, CHIPPEWA FALLS, WI, 54729, with a listed phone of (715) 723-5542. NPI 1710515077 was issued on 03/31/2020.
