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).

PAMELA BENSIMHON, MD is a Pediatrics Physician provider practicing in GREENSBORO, North Carolina, according to the CMS National Plan and Provider Enumeration System (NPPES). Credentials: MD.

PAMELA BENSIMHON, MD appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Pediatrics Physician provider holding MD credentials at 1150 REVOLUTION MILL DR STE 11, GREENSBORO, NC, 27405, with a listed phone of (336) 763-2344. NPI 1942246319 was issued on 06/22/2006.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 26 prescription claims written by this provider, covering N/A Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $10K in drug spend, split 69% brand-name and 31% generic by claim count.

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.
