NPI DaaS dataset for Healthcare

Learn about enriching Reltio for Healthcare with the National Provider Identifier (NPI) dataset.

Verify and enrich your data in Reltio for Healthcare with the US National Provider Identifier (NPI) dataset, part of the National Plan and Provider Enumeration System (NPPES) from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Service (CMS). The NPI is a 10-digit ID number assigned to healthcare providers to use in administrative and financial transactions. The NPI Data as a Service (DaaS) subscription service provides the full database of associated NPI attributes for healthcare organization (HCO) and healthcare practitioner (HCP) entities and their location entities.

Reltio for Healthcare can be integrated to the NPI data tenant, which contains Reltio-NPI attributes and source mappings for the HCO and HCP entity types contained in the NPPES Data Dissemination file. This integration makes it a snap to acquire external data, enrich existing data, and then share the enriched data internally with ease.

This Reltio for Healthcare integration provides visibility into your separate Reltio NPI data tenant, which contains the full database of associated NPI attributes that have been fully mapped to the Reltio data model. Reltio maintains these mappings, which are automatically applied whenever it uploads a new NPPES Data Dissemination file to the NPI data tenant. This NPI data tenant includes its own data model, match rules, attributes, and cleansers preconfigured for NPI datasets. For general information on the Reltio NPI integration, see topic Reltio Enrichment with NPI. For details on the preconfigured entity types that come with Reltio for Healthcare, see topics Entity types for Healthcare . For details on viewing NPI data, see topic Preconfigured User Interface for Healthcare.

NPI Location mapping for Healthcare

Addresses represent the Location entity type, but are stored as nested attributes outside of the Location entity type. When address data is mapped to a customer tenant, it's mapped to reference attributes within the Location entity type.
