— NUCC Health Care Provider Taxonomy, version 26.1

Where 175L00000X sits

• Group: Other Service Providers — code 13 of 38 in the group
• Classification: Homeopath 175L00000X

Homeopath has no specializations, so 175L00000X is the only code for it. A provider may report more than one taxonomy code on an NPI but marks one as primary.

Medicare

175L00000X has no entry in the CMS Medicare Provider and Supplier Taxonomy Crosswalk. That usually means Medicare does not enroll this kind of provider under its own specialty — the provider can still hold an NPI and use this code on claims to other payers.

History of 175L00000X

NUCC's notes record no dated changes for 175L00000X. The code set is republished every January and July, when codes are added, retitled or marked inactive; this page reflects version 26.1, so check the NUCC site if you are reading it after the next release.

Using 175L00000X

The code goes in the taxonomy field of the NPI application in NPPES, and on claims where a payer asks for it — box 24J (shaded) or 33b on the CMS-1500 with the ZZ qualifier, or the PRV segment of an 837 electronic claim. Payers match it against the taxonomy on the NPI record and, for Medicare, against the specialty on the enrollment, so all three should agree. To see which code a provider uses, search their NPI in the lookup.
