NICOLE BUCKINGHAM, APRN-CNP appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Oncology Clinical Nurse Specialist provider holding APRN-CNP credentials at 3535 PENTAGON BLVD STE 400, BEAVERCREEK, OH, 45431, with a listed phone of (855) 500-2873. NPI 1053906156 was issued on 03/02/2021.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 314 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 123 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $52K in drug spend, with an opioid prescribing rate of 9.9%. 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. On the CMS Merit-based Incentive Payment System, this provider earned a Final Score of 78.9373/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 69.8099, Cost 59.9811), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Oncology Clinical Nurse Specialist is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 209 enrolled providers across 38 states and an average of 435 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.
