Medical toxicologists care for people in clinical, academic, governmental and public health settings, and provide poison control center leadership.

Common questions
Why is Pediatric Medical Toxicology Physician a thin NUCC code in NPPES?
Only 14 NPIs list Pediatric Medical Toxicology Physician as primary taxonomy across 9 states (peak Arizona, 2). That is 658th 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 Pediatric Medical Toxicology Physician NPIs in Open Payments look unusual?
CMS Open Payments 2024 lists 1 paid Pediatric Medical Toxicology Physician physicians totaling $36 (1 payments; average $36, 458th 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 Pediatric Medical Toxicology Physician NPIs, 1 appear in the Medicare Part D Prescriber PUF (average 52 claims and $2K drug cost per prescriber; 410th of 496 specialties by average claims). Non-prescribing clinicians in the same NUCC code are still in NPPES.
