VICTOR FLAUTA, M.D. appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Medical Microbiology Physician provider holding M.D. credentials at 5631 N FIGARDEN DR, FRESNO, CA, 93722, with a listed phone of (559) 439-5950. NPI 1932148905 was issued on 06/05/2006. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what FLAUTA 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 13,177 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 225 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $667K in drug spend, split 9% brand-name and 91% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 2.2%. 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 4.7804/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 0, Cost 15.9348), compared with the national average of 83.1.

Medical Microbiology Physician is a narrow specialty nationwide, with 88 enrolled providers across 33 states and an average of 6,601 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.
