A Provider NPI Number is a unique identification number assigned to healthcare providers in the United States used for administrative and billing purposes in the healthcare system.
The Provider NPI Number is important because it standardizes the identification of healthcare providers across various systems, facilitating accurate billing, claims processing, and provider credentialing.
All providers involved in electronic healthcare transactions, including doctors, nurses, dentists, therapists, and other medical professionals, need a Provider NPI Number.
A Provider NPI Number is obtained by applying through the National Plan and Provider Enumeration System (NPPES) in the United States. The application process involves providing personal and professional information.
While the Provider NPI Number is specific to the United States, it may be recognized in international transactions involving U.S. providers. However, other countries may have their identification systems.
