NPPES Organization Attributes

The National Plan & Provider Enumeration System (NPPES) is a comprehensive, uniform system for identifying and uniquely enumerating health care providers and plans at the national level. The NPPES enrichment service matches healthcare organizations using National Plan Identifier (NPI) numbers and returns additional attributes, including the business and practice information, endpoints, and NPI lifecycle.

This service is available in the RealTime B2B Customers data product for healthcare organization data.

By default, each attribute is prefaced with nppes_result_ when included in publish and curation views.
