SAMIA TAHIR, OD appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Corneal and Contact Management Optometrist provider holding OD credentials at 6834 3RD AVE, BROOKLYN, NY, 11220, with a listed phone of (718) 680-3270. NPI 1912568585 was issued on 06/25/2019. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what TAHIR 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 32 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 12 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $6K in drug spend, split 50% brand-name and 50% generic by claim count. 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.

Corneal and Contact Management Optometrist is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 1,549 enrolled providers across 52 states and an average of 235 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.
