Where 2471C1106X sits

• Group: Technologists, Technicians & Other Technical Service Providers — code 4 of 65 in the group
• Classification: Radiologic Technologist 247100000X
• Specialization: Cardiac-Interventional Technology 2471C1106X

Choose 2471C1106X over the general Radiologic Technologist code (247100000X) when the provider's training or certification is specifically in cardiac-interventional technology; 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

2471C1106X 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.

Similar codes in other groups

If 2471C1106X is not quite right, these codes in other groups share a word with it — often the same field practised by a different kind of provider:

• 207RC0001X Clinical Cardiac Electrophysiology Physician (Allopathic & Osteopathic Physicians)
• 207RI0011X Interventional Cardiology Physician (Allopathic & Osteopathic Physicians)
• 208VP0014X Interventional Pain Medicine Physician (Allopathic & Osteopathic Physicians)

Using 2471C1106X

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.
