CLIA Information

The Clinical Laboratory Improvement Amendments (CLIA) of 1988 applies to facilities or sites that test human specimens for health assessment or to diagnose, prevent, or treat disease. The CLIA Program sets standards for clinical laboratory testing and issues certificates. The NPI / CLIA crosswalk information for this NPI number is:

CLIA Number: 03D0914648
Facility Type: Hospital
Certificate Effective Date: November 04, 2024
Certificate Expiration Date: November 03, 2026

This type of certificate is issued to a laboratories tha perform nonwaived (moderate and/or high complexity) testing.

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	4	4	3	7	4	4	7	1
Step 1: Double the value of the alternate digits, beginning with the rightmost digit.
2	1	8	4	6	7	8	4	14
Step 2: Add all the doubled and unaffected individual digits from step 1 plus the constant number 24.
2 + 1 + 8 + 4 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 4 + 1 + 4 + 24 = 69
Step 3: Subtract the total obtained in step 2 from the next higher number ending in zero, the result is the check digit.
70 - 69 = 1									1

The NPI number 1144374471 is valid because the calculated check digit 1 using the Luhn validation algorithm matches the last digit of the original NPI number.
