About NPI Profile

An independent reference for the public NPI registry, online since 2015.

NPI Profile is an independent, free reference site for the public NPPES NPI registry. We publish a profile for every active NPI with Medicare PECOS, CLIA and taxonomy data from official CMS sources, rebuilt every week from the latest NPPES release. We do not edit or verify individual records: corrections are made in NPPES and appear here after the next update. NPI Profile is not affiliated with CMS, NPPES, or any government agency.

What is an NPI profile?

An NPI profile is the public record the NPPES registry holds for one healthcare provider or organization. CMS releases these records under the Freedom of Information Act, so anyone can view them without a login or a fee. NPI Profile presents each record as its own profile page, 9.51 million in all, and adds Medicare PECOS enrollment, CLIA certificates, NUCC taxonomy descriptions, and Health Insurance Marketplace plan participation from other public CMS sources.

What an NPI profile shows
  • Name: the provider's name or the organization's legal name, with any other names on file
  • NPI number and status: Type 1 (individual) or Type 2 (organization), enumeration date, active or deactivated
  • Taxonomy: specialty code and description, primary specialty, state license numbers
  • Addresses: practice location and mailing address, phone and fax
  • Authorized official: for organizations, the person responsible for the record
  • Added by NPI Profile: Medicare PECOS status, CLIA certificates, Part D prescribing, and accepted insurance plans from the CMS Health Insurance Marketplace files

Social Security numbers, EINs, dates of birth and contact emails are never part of the public file. Providers change their record in the NPPES portal; the change reaches NPI Profile with the next weekly release. See how corrections and removals work.

What is an NPI Number?

A National Provider Identifier is the 10-digit number CMS assigns to every HIPAA-covered healthcare provider and organization in the United States. It identifies the provider on claims, prescriptions, and referrals, and it stays with the provider for life. Individual providers hold a Type 1 NPI; organizations hold a Type 2 NPI.
