Definition

A pediatrician who specializes in clinical and laboratory immunology disease management.

— NUCC Health Care Provider Taxonomy, version 26.1

Where 2080I0007X sits

Choose 2080I0007X over the general Pediatrics code (208000000X) when the provider's training or certification is specifically in clinical & laboratory immunology; the general code covers the classification as a whole. A provider may report more than one taxonomy code on an NPI but marks one as primary.

Medicare

CMS's taxonomy crosswalk links 2080I0007X to Medicare specialty 37 (Physician/Pediatric Medicine). That specialty — not the taxonomy code itself — is what Medicare enrollment records and uses for payment. 56,331 practitioners are enrolled under it nationally, and 23 other taxonomy codes map to the same specialty.

Other codes under the same Medicare specialty: 208000000X Pediatrics Physician; 2080A0000X Pediatric Adolescent Medicine Physician; 2080B0002X Pediatric Obesity Medicine Physician; 2080C0008X Child Abuse Pediatrics Physician; 2080H0002X Pediatric Hospice and Palliative Medicine Physician; 2080N0001X Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine Physician; 2080P0006X Developmental - Behavioral Pediatrics Physician; 2080P0008X Pediatric Neurodevelopmental Disabilities Physician; and 15 more.

Using 2080I0007X

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.
