Frequently Asked Questions

Why is Pediatric Sleep Medicine Physician a thin NUCC code in NPPES?
Only 110 NPIs list Pediatric Sleep Medicine Physician as primary taxonomy across 31 states (peak Texas, 18). That is 522nd 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 Pediatric Sleep Medicine Physician NPIs in Open Payments look unusual?
CMS Open Payments 2024 lists 57 paid Pediatric Sleep Medicine Physician physicians totaling $25K (480 payments; average $444, 374th 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 Pediatric Sleep Medicine Physician NPIs, 43 appear in the Medicare Part D Prescriber PUF (average 232 claims and $231K drug cost per prescriber; 411th of 572 specialties by average claims). Non-prescribing clinicians in the same NUCC code are still in NPPES.
