Under HIPAA regs, US providers engaged in standard electronic

transactions (such as insurance claims) are required to obtain and use

a National Provider Identifier (NPI) by May 23, 2007.

 

The use of the NPI number will become ubiquitous, just like social

security numbers and employer identification numbers. Even if you are

not a HIPAA-covered entity, the NPI will soon become necessary in the

course of your dealings with other providers and with payers.

 

I've posted a brief article (in pdf format) on how to quickly obtain

an NPI at: http://www.convergentmedical.com/newsdesk.html
