STACEY BUCHAN, PA-C appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Physician Assistant provider holding PA-C credentials at 7780 S BROADWAY STE 350, LITTLETON, CO, 80122, with a listed phone of (720) 638-7500. NPI 1841454147 was issued on 07/15/2008. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what BUCHAN 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 1,934 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 244 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $188K in drug spend, split 8% brand-name and 92% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 69.2%. 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 77.1751/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 80.2782, Cost 59.4721), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Physician Assistant is a high-volume specialty nationwide, with 149,975 enrolled providers across 56 states and an average of 790 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline. Important: PlainDoctor is a directory of publicly available government data, not medical advice, a malpractice database, or a quality rating. 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.
