Frequently Asked Questions

Why is Nutrition Support Registered Nurse a thin NUCC code in NPPES?
Only 123 NPIs list Nutrition Support Registered Nurse as primary taxonomy across 38 states (peak California, 17). That is 507th 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 Nutrition Support Registered Nurse NPIs in Open Payments look unusual?
CMS Open Payments 2024 lists 4 paid Nutrition Support Registered Nurse physicians totaling $531 (26 payments; average $133, 498th 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 Nutrition Support Registered Nurse NPIs, 5 appear in the Medicare Part D Prescriber PUF (average 218 claims and $74K drug cost per prescriber; 419th of 572 specialties by average claims). Non-prescribing clinicians in the same NUCC code are still in NPPES.
