Common questions
Why is Public Medicine Podiatrist a thin NUCC code in NPPES?
Only 21 NPIs list Public Medicine Podiatrist as primary taxonomy across 13 states (peak California, 4). That is 633rd 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 Public Medicine Podiatrist NPIs in Open Payments look unusual?
CMS Open Payments 2024 lists 5 paid Public Medicine Podiatrist physicians totaling $2K (28 payments; average $373, 308th 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 Public Medicine Podiatrist NPIs, 4 appear in the Medicare Part D Prescriber PUF (average 316 claims and $10K drug cost per prescriber; 222nd of 496 specialties by average claims). Non-prescribing clinicians in the same NUCC code are still in NPPES.
