Specialty - Primary Taxonomy

The NPI enumerator requires providers to submit at least one taxonomy code. A taxonomy code is a unique 10-character code that describes the healthcare provider type, classification, and the area of specialization. There could be only one primary taxonomy code per NPI record. For individual NPIs the license data is associated to the taxonomy code.

Classification: Orthopaedic Surgery
Taxonomy Code: 207X00000X
Type: Allopathic & Osteopathic Physicians
License No.: 34262
License State: MA
Taxonomy Description: An orthopaedic surgeon is trained in the preservation, investigation and restoration of the form and function of the extremities, spine and associated structures by medical, surgical and physical means. An orthopaedic surgeon is involved with the care of patients whose musculoskeletal problems include congenital deformities, trauma, infections, tumors, metabolic disturbances of the musculoskeletal system, deformities, injuries and degenerative diseases of the spine, hands, feet, knee, hip, shoulder and elbow in children and adults. An orthopaedic surgeon is also concerned with primary and secondary muscular problems and the effects of central or peripheral nervous system lesions of the musculoskeletal system.

NPI Validation Check Digit Calculation

The following table explains the step by step NPI number validation process using the ISO standard Luhn algorithm.

Start with the original NPI number, the last digit is the check digit and is not used in the calculation.
1	1	5	4	3	5	3	6	7	0
Step 1: Double the value of the alternate digits, beginning with the rightmost digit.
2	1	10	4	6	5	6	6	14
Step 2: Add all the doubled and unaffected individual digits from step 1 plus the constant number 24.
2 + 1 + 1 + 0 + 4 + 6 + 5 + 6 + 6 + 1 + 4 + 24 = 60
Step 3: because the number obtained in step 2 ends in zero, the check digit is zero.
									0

The NPI number 1154353670 is valid because the calculated check digit 0 using the Luhn validation algorithm matches the last digit of the original NPI number.
