Frequently Asked Questions

Why is Long-Term Care Clinical Nurse Specialist a thin NUCC code in NPPES?

Only 172 NPIs list Long-Term Care Clinical Nurse Specialist as primary taxonomy across 24 states (peak Indiana, 73). That is 465th 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 5 paid Long-Term Care Clinical Nurse Specialist physicians totaling $363 (8 payments; average $73, 526th 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 Long-Term Care Clinical Nurse Specialist NPIs, 2 appear in the Medicare Part D Prescriber PUF (average 85 claims and $3K drug cost per prescriber; 507th of 572 specialties by average claims). Non-prescribing clinicians in the same NUCC code are still in NPPES.
