Ronald Watson, APRN/CRNA appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist provider holding APRN/CRNA credentials at 20274 CENTRAL AVE W, Blountstown, FL, 32424, with a listed phone of (850) 353-7689. NPI 1780062604 was issued on 05/12/2015. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what Watson 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 1,977 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 227 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $243K in drug spend, split 13% brand-name and 86% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 6.9%. 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.

Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist is a high-volume specialty nationwide, with 62,433 enrolled providers across 55 states and an average of 282 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.
