Display Names Added to Taxonomy Code Set Look-up Tool

September 17, 2020

The Health Care Provider Taxonomy look-up tool has recently been updated to format that is easier to navigate.  The left-hand side of the page is an expandable list that includes an introduction and help page.  The codes are presented within the hierarchical three Levels and the list can be expanded or collapsed.  Clicking on a code brings up its details on the right-hand side of the page, including the new display name, definition, and effective date.  The display name has been added to give a more consumer-friendly, but still accurate, name for the code.  

The new display names will be added to the CSV file in the January 2021 release of the code set.
