Frequently Asked Questions

Why is Public Medicine Podiatrist a thin NUCC code in NPPES?
Only 43 NPIs list Public Medicine Podiatrist as primary taxonomy across 20 states (peak New York, 7). That is 591st 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 Public Medicine Podiatrist NPIs in Open Payments look unusual?
CMS Open Payments 2024 lists 17 paid Public Medicine Podiatrist physicians totaling $9K (132 payments; average $542, 348th 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 Public Medicine Podiatrist NPIs, 22 appear in the Medicare Part D Prescriber PUF (average 314 claims and $11K drug cost per prescriber; 369th of 572 specialties by average claims). Non-prescribing clinicians in the same NUCC code are still in NPPES.
