How MIPS and board certification work
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).
Raymond Barfield, MD appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Pediatric Hematology & Oncology Physician provider holding MD credentials at 4700 WATERS AVE STE 507, Savannah, GA, 31404, with a listed phone of (912) 350-4752. NPI 1215930417 was issued on 05/23/2005.
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 Pediatric Hematology & Oncology Physician providers operate outside Part D entirely. On the CMS Merit-based Incentive Payment System, this provider earned a Final Score of 100/100 for the 2023 performance year, compared with the national average of 83.1.
Pediatric Hematology & Oncology Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 2,568 enrolled providers across 52 states and an average of 92 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.
