Effective May 23, 2007, a National Provider Identifier (NPI) will be required for all electronic claims. Speech-language pathologists and audiologists who file claims electronically or use a clearing house for that purpose must obtain an NPI by this date. All health care providers are encouraged to apply for an NPI even if they currently do not file claims electronically. Speech-language pathologists and audiologists can learn more about NPI and how to apply by visiting www.cms.hhs.gov/NationalProvidentStand/. CMS has indicated that it will update this page with new information and recourses as they become available.
