Reminder: Review your NPI data with NPPES
Take a few minutes to review your National Provider Identifier (NPI) data in the National Plan & Provider Enumeration System (NPPES) to make sure it’s accurate. As you may know, providers are legally required to keep their NPPES data current.
When reviewing, update any inaccurate information in modifiable fields including:
- Provider name
- Mailing address
- Telephone and fax numbers
- Specialty
- And more
A few tips to keep in mind:
- Be sure to include all addresses where you actively see patients and where a patient can call and make an appointment.
- Don’t include addresses where you could see patients but don’t actively practice.
- Remove any practice locations no longer in use.
