Valerie,

We are entering all providers into the Provider Dictionary.  We receive
the UPIN's from the submitting department which can be Registration,
Home Health, or Lab (see attached for the form that we use).  If they do
not receive the UPIN at the time of service, then they look it up before
submitting the provider information at http://www.upinregistry.com/.

Unfortunately for the NPI number, there is not a lookup available at
this time.  We have not yet determined how we are going to collect this
number for non-staff providers.

Hope that this helps.

Subject: [MEDITECH-L] NPI's & Not on Staff Physicians

We're looking for some ideas.  We have a number of physicians who are do
not have hospital privileges; however, send their patients to us for
outpatient testing.  Currently we have been maintaining a list of these
physicians in an excel spreadsheet and manually entering there UPIN's on
the UB.  

How are other hospitals handling not on staff physicians and maintaining
the UPIN's or NPI's.  Are you entering all on-staff and not on-staff
physicians in your Provider Dictionaries?  If so, who is in entering and
maintaining these non-staff physicians?  If not, are you running a
manual system as we are doing.  

As always, thank you for your replies,
