Frequently Asked Questions

Why is Sleep Medicine (Otolaryngology) Physician a thin NUCC code in NPPES?
Only 100 NPIs list Sleep Medicine (Otolaryngology) Physician as primary taxonomy across 29 states (peak California, 11). That is 532nd 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 Sleep Medicine (Otolaryngology) Physician NPIs in Open Payments look unusual?
CMS Open Payments 2024 lists 77 paid Sleep Medicine (Otolaryngology) Physician physicians totaling $138K (1,068 payments; average $2K, 204th 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 Sleep Medicine (Otolaryngology) Physician NPIs, 77 appear in the Medicare Part D Prescriber PUF (average 605 claims and $36K drug cost per prescriber; 265th of 572 specialties by average claims). Non-prescribing clinicians in the same NUCC code are still in NPPES.
