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).

TREVOR STARNES, MD appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Surgery of the Hand (Surgery) Physician provider holding MD credentials at 300 TOWER ROAD, MARIETTA, GA, 30060, with a listed phone of (770) 427-5717. NPI 1154535797 was issued on 05/10/2007. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what STARNES 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 204 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 141 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $46K in drug spend, with an opioid prescribing rate of 57.4%.

On the CMS Merit-based Incentive Payment System, this provider earned a Final Score of 92.9348/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 80.3814), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Surgery of the Hand (Surgery) Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 394 enrolled providers across 44 states and an average of 175 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.
