Rocio Argueta, NURSE PRACTITIONER appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Acute Care Nurse Practitioner provider holding NURSE PRACTITIONER credentials at 5300 LENNOX AVE STE 105, Bakersfield, CA, 93309, with a listed phone of (661) 735-1710. NPI 1396053369 was issued on 09/23/2010. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what Argueta 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 6,056 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 646 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $670K in drug spend, split 13% brand-name and 86% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 2.6%. 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.

Acute Care Nurse Practitioner is a mid-sized specialty nationwide, with 24,583 enrolled providers across 53 states and an average of 576 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.
