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).

ROYA GHAFOURI, MD is a Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Physician provider practicing in BEVERLY HILLS, California, according to the CMS National Plan and Provider Enumeration System (NPPES).

ROYA GHAFOURI, MD appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Physician provider holding MD credentials at 9735 WILSHIRE BLVD STE 421, BEVERLY HILLS, CA, 90212, with a listed phone of (310) 990-0905. NPI 1790943355 was issued on 05/29/2008.

Important: PlainDoctor is a directory of publicly available government data, not medical advice, a malpractice database, or a quality rating.
