Only 4 NPIs list Diabetology (Internal Medicine) Physician as primary taxonomy across 4 states (peak Illinois, 1). That is 678th 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 2 paid Diabetology (Internal Medicine) Physician physicians totaling $317 (2 payments; average $159, 482nd 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 Diabetology (Internal Medicine) Physician NPIs, 1 appear in the Medicare Part D Prescriber PUF (average 185 claims and $54K drug cost per prescriber; 434th of 572 specialties by average claims). Non-prescribing clinicians in the same NUCC code are still in NPPES.
