Cloud-based therapy billing with free EMR?
The facts
Now that's Intriguing!
Getting an NPI is free, easy and
available online.
Registering for an NPI is free, easy
and online at https://nppes.cms.hhs.
gov. You need your Social Security
number, state license number and
tax identification number if you
are in your own practice. If you are
already enrolled as a provider in
Medicare or Medicaid, you will need
these numbers, and the appropriate
provider taxonomy number
(audiologist, 231H00000X; SLP,
235Z00000X).
My NPI can be stolen and used by
other providers.
In theory, NPIs are publically
available and could be used by
someone else. However, the
information that is available to
the public does not include Social
Security numbers or other personal
identification needed for insurance
enrollment. Identity thieves could
not use an NPI to bill insurers unless
they had all of the other information
and had enrolled in Medicare or the
health plan. To help prevent fraud,
update all enrollment accounts
when your practice location or your
employer changes.
If your NPI or medical information
has been compromised, you can
get assistance from the Centers for
Medicare and Medicaid Services,
which offers a remediation process
and has regional Zone Program
Integrity Contractors (bit.ly/
cms-integrity).
As with other identifying numbers,
it is important to monitor the
billing notices you receive with your
payments. And, of course, share your
NPI only with trusted sources.
