IMPORTANT NOTICES *****
May 23, 2008-Mandatory NPI Compliance
implemented.
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services
(CMS) will discontinue assigning Unique Physician Identification
Numbers (UPINs) on June 29, 2007. The National
Provider Identifier (NPI) is a requirement of the Health Insurance
Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), and the
NPI will replace the use of UPINs and other existing legacy
identifiers. (However, CMS recently announced a contingency
plan that allows for use of legacy numbers for some period
of time beyond May 23, 2007. Under the Medicare FFS contingency
plan, UPINs and surrogate UPINs may still be used to identify
ordering and referring providers and suppliers until further
notice.) Information on that contingency plan is at
http://www.cms.hhs.gov/NationalProvIdentStand/downloads/NPI_Contingency.pdf
on the CMS site.) If you do not have an NPI, you should
obtain one as soon as possible. Applying for an NPI is fast,
easy and free by going to the National Plan and Provider Enumeration
System (NPPES) website at https://nppes.cms.hhs.gov/.
