Frequently Asked Questions

Why is Critical Care Medicine (Obstetrics & Gynecology) Physician a thin NUCC code in NPPES?
Only 34 NPIs list Critical Care Medicine (Obstetrics & Gynecology) Physician as primary taxonomy across 18 states (peak California, 6). That is 608th of 690 NUCC codes by headcount. Thin codes are still searchable by NPI; do not treat the low count as a quality signal.

CMS Open Payments 2024 lists 10 paid Critical Care Medicine (Obstetrics & Gynecology) Physician physicians totaling $2K (71 payments; average $248, 449th of 551 by average). Presence is not a quality judgment; thin specialties often have sparse payment rows.
