In accordance with CMS regulations, physicians and other health care professionals who conduct electronic transactions or submit claims to us through a third-party vendor have been required to use a National Provider Identifier (NPI) since May 23, 2008.

To avoid claim rejections, please include NPI information on your standard transactions.

If you have not yet applied for a NPI, you may apply through the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Web site. 

If you’ve not yet registered your NPI information with us, please do so immediately by completing the appropriate form and faxing it to 1-973-274-4416.  Click here to access downloadable forms.
