Frequently Asked Questions

Why is Integrative Medicine Physician a thin NUCC code in NPPES?
Only 155 NPIs list Integrative Medicine Physician as primary taxonomy across 36 states (peak California, 30). That is 479th 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 Integrative Medicine Physician NPIs in Open Payments look unusual?
CMS Open Payments 2024 lists 33 paid Integrative Medicine Physician physicians totaling $140K (253 payments; average $4K, 107th 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 Integrative Medicine Physician NPIs, 69 appear in the Medicare Part D Prescriber PUF (average 800 claims and $90K drug cost per prescriber; 202nd of 572 specialties by average claims). Non-prescribing clinicians in the same NUCC code are still in NPPES.
