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).

SAMEER CHOPRA is a General Practice Physician provider practicing in PHOENIX, Arizona, according to the CMS National Plan and Provider Enumeration System (NPPES). NPI: 1831630037. This profile includes practice location, specialty classification, and organizational affiliations from the CMS provider registry. Provider information is self-reported to CMS and updated monthly.

SAMEER CHOPRA appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a General Practice Physician provider at 18404 N TATUM BLVD STE 207, PHOENIX, AZ, 85032, with a listed phone of (602) 777-3113. NPI 1831630037 was issued on 03/20/2017. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what CHOPRA 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 479 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 167 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $66K in drug spend, split 23% brand-name and 77% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 9.2%.

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.
