This is the code assigned by X12N.  X12 published the joint X12N and CMS Health Care Provider Taxonomy following the June 1997 X12 meeting.

to match the current pattern of the X12 code.  August 30, 2002.

August 30, 2002:

There are approximately 800 Provider Taxonomy codes and they are all 10 digits in length. The hierarchy of provider categories incorporates four areas of provider classifications that, when used in concert with one

another, create the capability to sort providers into broad and specific categories.  There are four levels in the hierarchy including:

I. Provider Type - 2 byte alphanumeric:

A code that identifies a major grouping of service(s) or occupation(s) of health care providers.

II. Classification Code - 2 byte alphanumeric:

A code that identifies more specific services(s) or occupation(s) within the health care provider type. The coding is based on licensed provider classifications.

III. Area of Specialization - 5 byte alphanumeric:

A code that identifies the provider's specialization, a segment of the population that a health care provider chooses to service, a specific medical service, a specialization in treating a specific disease, or any other

descriptive characteristic about the providers practice relating to the services rendered.

IV. A place holder for future expansion - 1 byte alphanumeric

2)= K ^USC(8932.1,"G",$E(X,1,30),DA)

3)= Allows lookups.

Created this x-ref to allow lookups on this field, e.g.:

S DIC=8932.1,X="261QV0200X",DIC(0)="M" D ^DIC

This field is only to help a conversion routine for updates to the file.  Any data is used only be a update routine.

This field holds the specialty code associated with the classification

UNEDITABLE

Note that the current definition of the X12 CODE does not explicitly indicate whether an entry is for an Individual or for a Non-Individual, either in value or structure definition.

PERSON CLASS is intended for Individuals, and as of this writing, plans are under way to create a separate file to support that portion of the X12 Provider Taxonomy which is for Non-Individuals.

August 30, 2002.

IHS has added entries for non-Individuals to the file.  Patches should take that in to account when planning how to load new data.
