US physician practices from the CMS NPPES register: fields, method and prices, nationwide or by state.
Pediatrician email list
The CMS NPPES register (file of 2026-09-14) lists ~53,000 registered practice addresses where at least one provider carries a pediatrics code, from general pediatrics to neonatology, pediatric cardiology and the other pediatric subspecialties. That is 11.1% of the ~483,000 physician addresses in the same file, the largest share of any specialty segment we publish. It is an upper bound, because the register keeps closed and duplicate addresses, and hospital units count alongside offices. The pediatrician list holds one row per pediatric office we can confirm, with the email it publishes and the page where we found it. You can order it now, nationwide or by state.

Who is included
An office is in this list when a provider registered at its address carries any NUCC code starting 2080 (Pediatrics), in any of the 15 taxonomy slots of an NPPES record. That covers general pediatrics (208000000X) and every subspecialty in the pediatrics branch of the taxonomy, among them:
Pediatric subspecialists are included, so this is broader than "general pediatricians". Pediatric codes outside the 2080 branch are left out unless a 2080 code is registered at the same address: pediatric surgery, pediatric dermatology, pediatric anesthesiology, child and adolescent psychiatry, pediatric emergency medicine filed under emergency medicine (207PP0204X), and three codes counted in other specialty lists: child neurology in the neurologist email list, pediatric urology in the urologist email list and pediatric radiology in the radiologist email list. Family physicians who see children are in the physician email list, not here.
Pediatric cardiology also counts in the cardiologist email list, and pediatric hematology-oncology in the oncologist email list. The counts overlap, so never add them together.
Physician email listHow many pediatricians are in the US?
The AAMC counted 60,305 active pediatricians in 2021 (2022 Physician Specialty Data Report). The AAMC's pediatrics group is general pediatrics only. It lists pediatric cardiology, pediatric critical care, pediatric hematology-oncology and neonatal-perinatal medicine as separate specialties. The Bureau of Labor Statistics counted 39,390 jobs for general pediatricians in May 2025 (OEWS, SOC 29-1221). OEWS counts wage-and-salary jobs only, so self-employed pediatricians are missing. Its SOC definition also places pediatric cardiologists under this occupation, which shows that the BLS and AAMC groups are drawn differently.
The NPPES register holds ~111,000 individual NPIs whose primary taxonomy starts with 2080, and ~123,000 with a 2080 code in any slot. Both include every pediatric subspecialty, and both are upper bounds, because physicians keep their NPI after they retire.
| Term | What it counts | Latest figure | Source and date |
|---|---|---|---|
| Active pediatricians | Physicians past residency whose self-reported primary specialty is pediatrics; pediatric subspecialties are separate AAMC specialties | 60,305 | AAMC, data year 2021 (published January 2023) |
| General pediatrician jobs | Wage-and-salary jobs in SOC 29-1221, which includes pediatric cardiologists; self-employed pediatricians are left out | 39,390 | BLS OEWS, May 2025 |
| Primary-taxonomy pediatric NPIs | Individual NPIs whose primary taxonomy is in the 2080 branch, subspecialties included | ~111,000 | CMS NPPES, file of 2026-09-14 |
| Any-slot pediatric NPIs | Individual NPIs with a 2080 code in any slot; an upper bound | ~123,000 | CMS NPPES, file of 2026-09-14 |
| Registered pediatric addresses | Distinct practice addresses where an active NPI carries a 2080 code | ~53,000 | CMS NPPES, file of 2026-09-14 |

Pediatric addresses against all physician addresses
Nationally there are about 15.6 pediatric addresses per 100,000 residents, against 141.2 physician addresses of all specialties, so pediatrics is 11.1% of the physician total. Three states show how far that ratio moves:
| State | Pediatric addresses per 100,000 | All physician addresses per 100,000 | Pediatric share of physician addresses |
|---|---|---|---|
| Maryland | 25.0 | 200.9 | 12.5% |
| Florida | 17.3 | 189.7 | 9.1% |
| Minnesota | 10.1 | 74.3 | 13.6% |
Florida has many physician addresses per resident, but pediatrics makes up a smaller part of them than in most states. Its older population is a likely reason. Minnesota is the reverse. It has few addresses of either kind per resident, yet pediatrics is a larger share there than in all but one state, Rhode Island (14.2%). Maryland is high on both. At the other end, Idaho has the lowest share (7.4%) and Iowa the lowest rate (8.1 per 100,000). The District of Columbia has the highest rate, at 30.1. Shares and the national rate are computed from the pediatric and physician register counts for each state, from the CMS file of 2026-09-14.
| State | Per 100,000 residents | In the public register |
|---|---|---|
| District of Columbia | 30.1 | ~210 |
| Maryland | 25.0 | ~1,600 |
| New York | 22.7 | ~4,500 |
| Delaware | 21.2 | ~230 |
| New Jersey | 20.7 | ~2,000 |
| Connecticut | 20.3 | ~750 |
| Rhode Island | 18.7 | ~210 |
| Massachusetts | 18.6 | ~1,300 |
| Louisiana | 18.2 | ~840 |
| Vermont | 18.1 | ~120 |

Where the data comes from
The list starts from the CMS National Plan and Provider Enumeration System (NPPES), the federal register of healthcare providers, file of 2026-09-14. We group MD and DO registrations by practice address, match each location to its own website or its group's location page, and record the emails and phone numbers published there, with the page URL. We check each email with the receiving mail server and leave out locations we can't confirm as current.

Questions about the pediatrician list
Can I buy the pediatrician list now?
Yes. Choose nationwide or up to 10 states in the order panel on this page. It costs $249 nationwide, and the panel shows the price of each state file. Delivered within 24 hours, usually much sooner. That includes the nationwide file.
Does the list include hospital-employed pediatricians?
Rows will be locations, not people. A pediatrician employed by a hospital or children's health system will appear through the clinic where they see patients, with that clinic's name, phone and published email. The list will carry no pediatricians' names.
Can I keep general pediatric offices and drop subspecialty clinics?
Yes. You will be able to filter the specialty column for general pediatrics (208000000X). Offices where both general and subspecialty codes are registered will show both.
Would vaccine distributors or pediatric software vendors find it useful?
We expect so, though we have not tested it with buyers yet. Both would mostly be selling to primary care offices, and the specialty column will separate those offices from neonatal units and specialty clinics.
Are family medicine doctors who see children included?
No. Family medicine is a separate specialty in NPPES. Those offices are in the physician email list.
How are pediatrician files delivered and refunded?
The same as every list. Delivered within 24 hours, usually much sooner. Card held at checkout, charged on delivery. The 5% bounce refund applies too. See pricing.
