SUZANNE LUDLUM, NURSE PRACTITIONER appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Acute Care Nurse Practitioner provider holding NURSE PRACTITIONER credentials at 450 LAKEVILLE RD, NEW HYDE PARK, NY, 11042, with a listed phone of (516) 734-8811. NPI 1609034719 was issued on 05/26/2008. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what LUDLUM 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 1,543 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 183 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $8.2 million in drug spend. 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 74.0668/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 60.1704, Cost 56.3758), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Acute Care Nurse Practitioner is a mid-sized specialty nationwide, with 24,583 enrolled providers across 53 states and an average of 576 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.
