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).

SHAHZAMAN ABBASI, MD is a Internal Medicine Physician provider practicing in LANSING, Michigan, according to the CMS National Plan and Provider Enumeration System (NPPES). Credentials: MD.

SHAHZAMAN ABBASI, MD appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Internal Medicine Physician provider holding MD credentials at 1540 LAKE LANSING RD STE 102, LANSING, MI, 48912, with a listed phone of (517) 913-3810. NPI 1376512111 was issued on 03/15/2006.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 10,719 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 767 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $1.1 million in drug spend, split 11% brand-name and 89% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 3.7%.

Important: PlainDoctor is a directory of publicly available government data, not medical advice, a malpractice database, or a quality rating.
