According to the Home Health Compare program data, Aba Inc doesn't have a Quality of Patient Star Rating available at this time because the number of patient episodes for this measure is too small to report. To have a quality star rating computed, Home Health Agencies must have reported data for 5 of the 7 measures used in the Quality of Patient Care Star Ratings calculation. The seven measures used to calculate the quality star rating are: timely initiation of care, improvement in ambulation, bed transferring, bathing, shortness of breath, management of oral medications and relapse in acute care hospitalizations.

NPI Validation Check Digit Calculation

The following table explains the step by step NPI number validation process using the ISO standard Luhn algorithm.

Start with the original NPI number, the last digit is the check digit and is not used in the calculation.
1	1	1	4	0	1	4	6	8	5
Step 1: Double the value of the alternate digits, beginning with the rightmost digit.
2	1	2	4	0	1	8	6	16
Step 2: Add all the doubled and unaffected individual digits from step 1 plus the constant number 24.
2 + 1 + 2 + 4 + 0 + 1 + 8 + 6 + 1 + 6 + 24 = 55
Step 3: Subtract the total obtained in step 2 from the next higher number ending in zero, the result is the check digit.
60 - 55 = 5									5

The NPI number 1114014685 is valid because the calculated check digit 5 using the Luhn validation algorithm matches the last digit of the original NPI number.
