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).

Wendy Nguyen, PA-C appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Case Manager/Care Coordinator provider holding PA-C credentials at 11942 PARAMOUNT BLVD, Downey, CA, 90242, with a listed phone of (562) 923-6060. NPI 1508249962 was issued on 07/02/2015.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 2,803 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 339 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $155K in drug spend, split 4% brand-name and 96% generic by claim count, with an opioid prescribing rate of 32.3%. 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.

Case Manager/Care Coordinator is a high-volume specialty nationwide, with 160,120 enrolled providers across 54 states and an average of 859 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.
