PAIGE FOX, MD, PHD appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Surgery of the Hand (Plastic Surgery) Physician provider holding MD, PHD credentials at 300 PASTEUR DR, PALO ALTO, CA, 94304, with a listed phone of (650) 723-4000. NPI 1629239744 was issued on 06/20/2008. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what FOX 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 prescribing data is not currently published for this NPI, which typically means the provider either wrote fewer than 11 Part D claims in the most recent reporting year, does not participate in Medicare, or practices in a specialty that rarely prescribes outpatient drugs. Absence of prescribing data is not a quality signal — many Surgery of the Hand (Plastic Surgery) Physician providers operate outside Part D entirely. On the CMS Merit-based Incentive Payment System, this provider earned a Final Score of 76.5025/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 74.3195, Cost 43.9595), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Surgery of the Hand (Plastic Surgery) Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 370 enrolled providers across 43 states and an average of 106 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.
