NPI Numbers

As part of the health care reform legislation signed into law in March 2010, the Physician Payment Sunshine Act requires medical device, biologic and drug companies to publicly disclose gifts and payments made to physicians. To help our ACAAI Annual Scientific Meeting exhibitors and industry partners in fulfilling the mandatory reporting provisions of the Sunshine Act, the College has requested U.S. health care provider attendees to supply their 10-digit NPI (National Provider Identifier) number when registering for the Annual Scientific Meeting. The NPI will be embedded in the bar code data on the attendee’s badge – it will NOT be printed on the badge. Exhibitors can download the NPI information by scanning the badge through a lead retrieval system so that they can record and track any reportable transactions.
