Frequently Asked Questions

Is Tang experienced with hospital follow-up visit, moderate complexity?
Based on Medicare claims data, Tang performed 81 hospital follow-up visit, moderate complexity services. These records cover Medicare fee-for-service activity, including eligible younger beneficiaries; they do not measure total practice volume or clinical quality.
Does Tang receive payments from pharmaceutical companies?
Yes. Tang received a total of $1,621 from 11 companies across 35 payment records. A record can group multiple payments. These transfers are publicly disclosed through CMS Open Payments. Disclosure alone does not establish their legality or effect on care. Patients may wish to ask their doctor about these relationships, especially if a recommended drug or device appears in the payment records.
How do Tang's costs compare to other surgical physician assistants in New Brunswick?

What does Data Coverage mean?
Data Coverage (currently Very High for Tang) measures how much public federal data is available about a provider. It is not a quality rating. A "Very High" or "High" level means the provider has data across multiple federal sources (NPPES, PECOS, Medicare Utilization, Open Payments), indicating the presence of registry, enrollment, activity or payment records, not verified experience or clinical quality. A "Low" or "Moderate" level may simply mean the provider is newer, does not see Medicare patients, or has not received any industry payments — none of which are inherently negative.

Source publication dates and the snapshots loaded on this site can differ. Rebuilding a page does not refresh its source records.
