NPI 1992931414 was issued on 06/10/2009.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 45 prescription claims written by this provider, covering N/A Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $647 in drug spend.

On the CMS Merit-based Incentive Payment System, this provider earned a Final Score of 76.2008/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 69.3395, Cost 51.3298), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Thoracic Surgery (Cardiothoracic Vascular Surgery) Physician is a mid-sized specialty nationwide, with 5,062 enrolled providers across 52 states and an average of 128 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.
