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.

- Taxonomy Description
- (1) A clinical laboratory is a facility for the biological, microbiological, serological, chemical, immunohematological, hematological, biophysical, cytological, pathological, or other examination of materials derived from the human body for the purpose of providing information for the diagnosis, prevention, or treatment of any disease or impairment of, human beings. These examinations also include procedures to determine, measure, or otherwise describe the presence or absence of various substances or organisms in the body. Facilities only collecting or preparing specimens (or both) or only serving as a mailing service and not performing testing are not considered clinical laboratories. (2) Any facility that examines materials from the human body for purposes of providing information for the diagnosis, prevention, or treatment of any disease or impairment of, or the assessment of, the health of human beings. Typical divisions of a clinical laboratory include hematology, cytology, bacteriology, histology, biochemistry, medical toxicology, and serology.
Areas of Expertise
The following services and procedures, recently provided to Medicare patients, illustrate the range of care this provider offers.

This test checks for the presence of Chlamydia pneumoniae, a bacterium that can cause respiratory infections. It uses an amplified probe technique, which magnifies the bacterium's genetic material for easier detection. It's a standard, non-invasive procedure.
This service was performed 84 times for 75 patientsThis test identifies different respiratory viruses by examining their nucleic acid, the building blocks of their genetic material. It can detect multiple types or subtypes, specifically 3-5 targets. This helps in diagnosing your respiratory illness accurately.
This service was performed 49 times for 47 patientsThis test checks for Mycoplasma pneumoniae, a bacteria that can cause lung infection. It uses a method called amplified probe technique, which identifies the bacteria's genetic material. This helps in diagnosing the infection accurately.
This service was performed 84 times for 75 patientsA nucleic acid detection test is a procedure to identify specific organisms in your body. This test uses an amplified probe technique, which magnifies the genetic material of the organism, making it easier to detect. It's a precise way to diagnose infections.
This service was performed 1,530 times for 141 patientsA detection test for Staphylococcus aureus uses a method called the amplified probe technique. This method identifies the bacteria's unique genetic material, or nucleic acid, helping to confirm its presence. It's a highly accurate way to detect this type of bacteria.
This service was performed 156 times for 134 patientsA detection test by nucleic acid for MRSA bacteria uses an amplified probe technique. It's a lab procedure that identifies the presence of MRSA, a type of bacteria resistant to many antibiotics. This test helps in deciding the best treatment.
This service was performed 99 times for 86 patientsA detection test by nucleic acid for Group B Strep uses an amplified probe technique. This test identifies the presence of Group B Strep bacteria in the body. It involves collecting a sample, usually a swab, which is then examined in a lab for the bacteria's genetic material.
This service was performed 82 times for 69 patientsThe detection test by nucleic acid for vancomycin-resistant strep (VRE) is a laboratory procedure. It uses an amplified probe technique to identify specific genetic material in bacteria. This helps determine if the bacteria are resistant to the antibiotic vancomycin.
This service was performed 99 times for 86 patientsThis test helps identify Candida, a type of fungus often present in the human body. An amplified probe technique is used, which enhances detection of the fungus in a sample. This method increases the accuracy of the test, helping to determine the best treatment.
This service was performed 324 times for 68 patientsThis is a test to detect the COVID-19 virus. It uses a technique that amplifies the virus's genetic material (DNA or RNA) for detection.

NPI NPI Number Validation
How NPI Validation Works
The NPI validation process uses the ISO-standard Luhn algorithm, a mathematical "handshake", to ensure that a provider's 10-digit ID is authentic and free of common typing errors.
To verify the NPI 1730834698, we treat the final digit (8) as the Check Digit—the target answer we need to reach. The process begins by taking the first nine digits and adding a constant value of 24, which accounts for the "80840" prefix required for all U.S. health identifiers. We then double every other digit starting from the right and sum the individual digits of those results together. For this specific NPI, that total comes to 72. The final step is to find the difference between that total and the next multiple of ten (80 - 72 = 8).
Digit-by-digit view
Use the first nine digits for the calculation. Starting from the right, double every other digit. The last digit is the check digit and is not part of the calculation.
Step 1: Double every other digit from the right
Starting with the rightmost digit of the first nine digits, double every other value. If doubling creates a two-digit number, add those digits together.
Step 2: Add all digits plus the NPI constant
Add the transformed values, the unchanged digits, and the constant 24.
Step 3: Find the amount needed to reach the next multiple of 10
The next multiple of ten after 72 is 80. The difference is the calculated check digit.
