Why is my NPI data (personal information) being displayed publicly?
If you have an active NPI profile, your profile is required to be disclosed according to the FOIA and eFOIA. HIPAA also requires covered providers to share their NPI with other providers, health plans, clearinghouses and any entity that may need it for billing purposes.
