Medicare
CMS's taxonomy crosswalk links 207SG0202X to Medicare specialty D3 (Medical Genetics and Genomics). That specialty — not the taxonomy code itself — is what Medicare enrollment records and uses for payment. 469 practitioners are enrolled under it nationally, and 4 other taxonomy codes map to the same specialty.
Other codes under the same Medicare specialty: 207SG0201X Clinical Genetics (M.D.) Physician; 207SG0203X Clinical Molecular Genetics Physician; 207SG0205X Ph.D. Medical Genetics Physician; 207SM0001X Molecular Genetic Pathology (Medical Genetics) Physician.

Using 207SG0202X
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.
