SCOTT LEE, M.D. appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Orthopaedic Surgery of the Spine Physician provider holding M.D. credentials at 1500 S CENTRAL AVE STE 102, GLENDALE, CA, 91204, with a listed phone of (818) 614-9188. NPI 1760790349 was issued on 09/17/2010. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what LEE 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 286 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 136 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $12K in drug spend, split 8% brand-name and 92% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 22.4%. 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 84.9971/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 61.01, Cost 58.9804), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Orthopaedic Surgery of the Spine Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 1,773 enrolled providers across 51 states and an average of 362 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.
