RICHARD BUNDSCHU, MD appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Interventional Pain Medicine Physician provider holding MD credentials at 8000 SR 64 E, BRADENTON, FL, 34212, with a listed phone of (941) 792-1404. NPI 1841266202 was issued on 02/27/2006. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what BUNDSCHU 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 327 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 143 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $8K in drug spend, with an opioid prescribing rate of 70.3%. 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 70.3693/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 53.0428, Cost 61.5215), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Interventional Pain Medicine Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 1,528 enrolled providers across 53 states and an average of 2,197 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.
