68.5473/100 MIPS final score — 14.6 pts below the 83.1 national average
Quality, Cost, Promoting Interoperability, and Improvement Activities composite score for the 2023 performance year. Specialty: Orthopaedic Surgery Physician. Quality dim: 58.8601. Cost dim: 67.9644.
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).
VINCE WAKE, M.D. appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Orthopaedic Surgery Physician provider holding M.D. credentials at 4760 BELPAR ST NW, CANTON, OH, 44718, with a listed phone of (330) 492-9200. NPI 1356472484 was issued on 03/08/2007. Because NPPES data is self-reported by the provider and refreshed monthly, the address, phone, and specialty reflect what WAKE 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 611 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 261 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $4K in drug spend, with an opioid prescribing rate of 39.1%. 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 68.5473/100 for the 2023 performance year (Quality 58.8601, Cost 67.9644), compared with the national average of 83.1.
Orthopaedic Surgery Physician is a mid-sized specialty nationwide, with 25,781 enrolled providers across 56 states and an average of 324 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.
