What Is a Healthcare Provider Taxonomy Code?

A healthcare provider taxonomy code classifies a provider's type, classification, or specialization using the NUCC reference set.

A provider can report multiple taxonomy codes. Product contracts must define whether they expose all codes, one primary code, or a curated category mapping.

Required clarity

- Taxonomy reference version - Primary-selection rule - Entity-type scope - Product-category mapping
