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).

THEBE BAGWASI is a Corneal and Contact Management Optometrist provider practicing in SAINT CHARLES, Missouri, according to the CMS National Plan and Provider Enumeration System (NPPES). NPI: 1124037320. This profile includes practice location, specialty classification, and organizational affiliations from the CMS provider registry. Provider information is self-reported to CMS and updated monthly.

THEBE BAGWASI appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Corneal and Contact Management Optometrist provider at 2100 COLLIER CORPORATE PKWY, SAINT CHARLES, MO, 63303, with a listed phone of (636) 410-8285. NPI 1124037320 was issued on 08/05/2006.

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.
