RICHARD KARAGA, D.O appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Adult Medicine Physician provider holding D.O credentials at 1026 UNION RD, WEST SENECA, NY, 14224, with a listed phone of (716) 712-0851. NPI 1770882441 was issued on 03/21/2011. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what KARAGA 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 7,885 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 659 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $894K in drug spend, split 11% brand-name and 89% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 3.1%. 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.

Adult Medicine Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 2,481 enrolled providers across 52 states and an average of 2,807 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.
