The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services administers the NPI numbers. The National Provider Identifier (NPI) is a Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) Administrative Simplification Standard. The NPI is a unique identification number required for all covered health care providers. The NPI is a 10-digit number that identifies providers by state and by medical specialty.
