Stephen Hammond, M.D appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Dermatopathology Physician provider holding M.D credentials at 8170 ROURK ST STE 100, Myrtle Beach, SC, 29572, with a listed phone of (843) 282-1915. NPI 1851553523 was issued on 06/25/2008.

Medicare Part D prescribing data is not currently published for this NPI, which typically means the provider either wrote fewer than 11 Part D claims in the most recent reporting year, does not participate in Medicare, or practices in a specialty that rarely prescribes outpatient drugs. Absence of prescribing data is not a quality signal, many Dermatopathology Physician providers operate outside Part D entirely. On the CMS Merit-based Incentive Payment System, this provider carries a Final Score of 75/100 for the 2023 performance year, but CMS published no Quality, Promoting Interoperability, Improvement Activity or Cost score: this is the neutral performance threshold CMS assigns where nothing was scored, so it is not comparable with clinicians whose score was measured.

Dermatopathology Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 571 enrolled providers across 48 states and an average of 650 Part D claims per prescriber, so the context for interpreting these metrics differs meaningfully from a primary-care baseline.
