    NPI Lookup – NPI Number Lookup for doctors & medical groups

    The NPI Number (National Provider Identifier) is the only healthcare provider identifier that can be used for identification purposes in standard transactions by covered entities. The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) requires that covered entities use NPI numbers in standard transactions. The NPI number must be used in lieu of legacy provider identifiers, such as UPIN in the HIPAA standards transactions to process all medical claims.

    Search the NPI Registry for any healthcare provider. Search by Group or Individual Name or NPI Number. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has developed the NPPES to assign a unique 10-digit NPI number to all health care providers in accordance to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) of 1996.

    Search the NPI Registry by:
    NPI Number
    Perform a reverse NPI lookup to find providers by NPI number. First & Last Name
    Find individual providers by first and/or last name. Group Name
    Find organizations & medical groups by name.
