Frequently Asked Questions

Why is Clinical Biochemical Genetics Physician a thin NUCC code in NPPES?
Only 83 NPIs list Clinical Biochemical Genetics Physician as primary taxonomy across 26 states (peak California, 12). That is 550th of 690 NUCC codes by headcount. Thin codes are still searchable by NPI; do not treat the low count as a quality signal.
Do the few Clinical Biochemical Genetics Physician NPIs in Open Payments look unusual?
CMS Open Payments 2024 lists 35 paid Clinical Biochemical Genetics Physician physicians totaling $351K (312 payments; average $10K, 41st of 551 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 Clinical Biochemical Genetics Physician NPIs, 21 appear in the Medicare Part D Prescriber PUF (average 44 claims and $1.1M drug cost per prescriber; 542nd of 572 specialties by average claims). Non-prescribing clinicians in the same NUCC code are still in NPPES.
