How this directory is built
NPI Profile organizes the official NPPES registry, the federal source for National Provider Identifiers, and refreshes it every week. Providers choose their own taxonomy when they enroll. Details are always corrected at the source: a provider updates their NPPES record, and the change appears here on the next weekly refresh.
