| The National Provider Identifier (NPI) is an
administrative simplification mandate of HIPAA that requires every health-care
provider to obtain and use a unique 10-digit identifier (NPI) by May 23, 2008.
This identifier will replace all current health-care provider numbers used in
HIPAA standard transactions, such as electronic claims submissions. Please

CMS web site for additional information or Click here to access the CMS website to Apply Online for an NPI.
