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: Preferred Provider Organization
Taxonomy Code: 305R00000X
Type: Managed Care Organizations
Taxonomy Description: A group of physicians and/or hospitals who contract with an employer to provide services to their employees. In a PPO, the patient may got to the physician of his/her choice, even if that physician does not participate in the PPO, but the patient receives care at a lower benefit level.

Authorized Official

The authorized official is the designated individual with the legal authority to make changes to the provider’s official NPI record. For organizations, the authorized official must be a general partner, chairman of the board, CEO, CFO or a direct owner holding at least a 5 percent stake in the medical organization.

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	6	3	9	4	4	2	3	7	9
Step 1: Double the value of the alternate digits, beginning with the rightmost digit.
2	6	6	9	8	4	4	3	14
Step 2: Add all the doubled and unaffected individual digits from step 1 plus the constant number 24.
2 + 6 + 6 + 9 + 8 + 4 + 4 + 3 + 1 + 4 + 24 = 71
Step 3: Subtract the total obtained in step 2 from the next higher number ending in zero, the result is the check digit.
80 - 71 = 9									9

The NPI number 1639442379 is valid because the calculated check digit 9 using the Luhn validation algorithm matches the last digit of the original NPI number.
