Medicare enrolment is recorded as approved under the provider type Practitioner - General Surgery. There are 2 separate enrolment records across 2 states (FL, IL). Multiple enrolments usually mean the provider bills Medicare from more than one practice location, or has kept an earlier enrolment after moving.

Call the office to confirm.
What Pediatric Surgery covers
A surgeon with expertise in the management of surgical conditions in premature and newborn infants, children and adolescents. NUCC Health Care Provider Taxonomy, code 2086S0120X
The taxonomy records how the provider classifies their own practice. It does not confirm which conditions they currently treat, whether they are accepting new patients, or which insurance they take — call the office for that.
Full NPPES record
An NPI-1 identifies a single person. It stays with the clinician for life, even if they move practice or change state, which is why the address on file can lag behind where they actually work today.

Number check
How the check works, step by step
Every NPI carries a Luhn check digit — the same scheme used on credit cards. CMS prefixes the number with 80840 before computing it, which marks it as a US health identifier.
| Digit | 8 | 0 | 8 | 4 | 0 | 1 | 6 | 6 | 9 | 4 | 4 | 6 | 8 | 9 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Doubled? | — | ×2 | — | ×2 | — | ×2 | — | ×2 | — | ×2 | — | ×2 | — | ×2 |
| Value | 8 | 0 | 8 | 8 | 0 | 2 | 6 | 3 | 9 | 8 | 4 | 3 | 8 | 9 |
Sum = 76 · next multiple of 10 = 80 · check digit = 4 · actual last digit = 4
A valid check digit only means the number is well-formed. It does not mean the provider is licensed, active, or in good standing — those are separate questions answered by the sections above.
