Common questions
Why is Pediatric Oncology Registered Nurse a thin NUCC code in NPPES?
Only 86 NPIs list Pediatric Oncology Registered Nurse as primary taxonomy across 25 states (peak California, 31). That is 529th 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 Oncology Registered Nurse NPIs in Open Payments look unusual?
CMS Open Payments 2024 lists 2 paid Pediatric Oncology Registered Nurse physicians totaling $71 (2 payments; average $36, 459th 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 Oncology Registered Nurse NPIs, 1 appear in the Medicare Part D Prescriber PUF (average 48 claims and $4K drug cost per prescriber; 416th of 496 specialties by average claims). Non-prescribing clinicians in the same NUCC code are still in NPPES.
