TIMOTHY LAM, DPM appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Public Medicine Podiatrist provider holding DPM credentials at 1610 UNION ST, SCHENECTADY, NY, 12309, with a listed phone of (518) 370-3668. NPI 1407946601 was issued on 10/16/2006. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what LAM 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 776 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 400 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $20K in drug spend, split 11% brand-name and 89% generic by claim count. 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 0/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 0), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Public Medicine Podiatrist is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 45 enrolled providers across 22 states and an average of 311 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.
