Common questions
Why is Addiction Medicine (Anesthesiology) Physician a thin NUCC code in NPPES?
Only 121 NPIs list Addiction Medicine (Anesthesiology) Physician as primary taxonomy across 36 states (peak California, 11). That is 504th of 688 NUCC codes by headcount. Thin codes are still searchable by NPI; do not treat the low count as a quality signal.
Do the few Addiction Medicine (Anesthesiology) Physician NPIs in Open Payments look unusual?
CMS Open Payments 2024 lists 34 paid Addiction Medicine (Anesthesiology) Physician physicians totaling $13K (221 payments; average $371, 309th of 470 by average). Presence is not a quality judgment; thin specialties often have sparse payment rows.
How much Part D prescribing does this specialty do?
Among Addiction Medicine (Anesthesiology) Physician NPIs, 58 appear in the Medicare Part D Prescriber PUF (average 345 claims and $29K drug cost per prescriber; 214th of 496 specialties by average claims). Non-prescribing clinicians in the same NUCC code are still in NPPES.
