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).

NICOLE ILONZO is a Vascular Surgery Physician provider practicing in BROOKLYN, New York, according to the CMS National Plan and Provider Enumeration System (NPPES). NPI: 1528486503.

NICOLE ILONZO appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Vascular Surgery Physician provider at 506 6TH ST, BROOKLYN, NY, 11215, with a listed phone of (718) 780-3288. NPI 1528486503 was issued on 04/07/2014. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what ILONZO 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 245 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 89 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $31K in drug spend, split 14% brand-name and 86% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 18.8%.

Vascular Surgery Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 4,215 enrolled providers across 53 states and an average of 205 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.
