SAMANTHA JACOBS appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Nurse Practitioner provider at 4815 LIBERTY AVE STE 340, PITTSBURGH, PA, 15224, with a listed phone of (412) 681-4401. NPI 1508402959 was issued on 11/20/2019. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what JACOBS 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 524 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 166 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $168K in drug spend, split 11% brand-name and 89% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 10.9%. 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. On the CMS Merit-based Incentive Payment System, this provider earned a Final Score of 85.5698/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 86.6252, Cost 56.8769), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Nurse Practitioner is a high-volume specialty nationwide, with 87,227 enrolled providers across 56 states and an average of 1,084 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.

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.
