Wrong Speciality Codes!

It was bought to my attention that there are websites that are publishing the WRONG provider specialty codes for Medicare submissions.

For example, the specialy code (not taxonomy) for Internal Medicine is 11. There are a few websites listing 03 as the code. DON'T USE 03.

The correct listing is available on the CMS(medicare) website in pdf format under transmittals/downloads/r429cp.pdf (page 5).
