SHALINI PARUTHI, M.D. appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Pediatric Sleep Medicine Physician provider holding M.D. credentials at 915 N GRAND BLVD # B546, SAINT LOUIS, MO, 63106, with a listed phone of (314) 652-4100. NPI 1144340936 was issued on 03/29/2007. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what PARUTHI 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 593 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 85 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $381K in drug spend, split 9% brand-name and 91% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 8.8%. 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 89.2387/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 84.1405), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Pediatric Sleep Medicine Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 99 enrolled providers across 30 states and an average of 357 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.
