Common questions
Why is Pediatric Sleep Medicine Physician a thin NUCC code in NPPES?
Only 136 NPIs list Pediatric Sleep Medicine Physician as primary taxonomy across 33 states (peak Texas, 14). That is 493rd 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 Sleep Medicine Physician NPIs in Open Payments look unusual?
CMS Open Payments 2024 lists 75 paid Pediatric Sleep Medicine Physician physicians totaling $41K (511 payments; average $546, 283rd 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 Sleep Medicine Physician NPIs, 43 appear in the Medicare Part D Prescriber PUF (average 118 claims and $43K drug cost per prescriber; 328th of 496 specialties by average claims). Non-prescribing clinicians in the same NUCC code are still in NPPES.
