Common questions
Why is Otolaryngic Allergy Physician a thin NUCC code in NPPES?
Only 134 NPIs list Otolaryngic Allergy Physician as primary taxonomy across 33 states (peak California, 12). That is 494th of 688 NUCC codes by headcount. Thin codes are still searchable by NPI; do not treat the low count as a quality signal.
Do the few Otolaryngic Allergy Physician NPIs in Open Payments look unusual?
CMS Open Payments 2024 lists 64 paid Otolaryngic Allergy Physician physicians totaling $304K (940 payments; average $5K, 91st of 470 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 Otolaryngic Allergy Physician NPIs, 91 appear in the Medicare Part D Prescriber PUF (average 867 claims and $68K drug cost per prescriber; 95th of 496 specialties by average claims). Non-prescribing clinicians in the same NUCC code are still in NPPES.
