Completing the NPI Form:
As I work my way through the NPI, I am confused about three sections of the system:
- Health Information Exchange (endpoints)
Endpoint and identifiers are optional please move to the next step. We do not want to enroll in the reporting. - Other Identifiers
It’s optional, move to the next step. - Taxonomy
This varies. You can review the different codes on the following website: https://taxonomy.nucc.org/ and the recommendation is to use your license/credentials and job title to select your response.
Some examples are:
LPC: 101YP2500X- Professional Counselor,
LCSW: 1041C0700X -Clinical Social Worker
