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).

YUN KYOUNG TIGER, M.D is a Hematology (Internal Medicine) Physician provider practicing in ROCHESTER, Minnesota, according to the CMS National Plan and Provider Enumeration System (NPPES).

YUN KYOUNG TIGER, M.D appears in the CMS NPPES registry as a Hematology (Internal Medicine) Physician provider holding M.D credentials at 200 1ST ST SW, ROCHESTER, MN, 55905, with a listed phone of (507) 284-2511. NPI 1578096269 was issued on 04/10/2017.

Medicare Part D records for calendar year 2023 show 46 prescription claims written by this provider, covering 18 Medicare beneficiaries and totaling roughly $226K in drug spend, split 33% brand-name and 67% generic by claim count.

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.
