The NPI date is when this clinician registered for a National Provider Identifier, the billing number used on health claims. It is not a license, graduation or board-certification date. NPIs were first issued in May 2005 and became required on claims in 2007–2008, so an early date usually means the clinician was already in practice before then. What an NPI is

Education and training

  • 2000Medical school: Louisiana State University School of Medicine in New Orleans
  • 2007Registered with an NPI (national billing number; not a license date) — NPIs began in 2005, so practice likely started earlier

Undergraduate school, residency, fellowship, licensing exams and board certification aren’t in public federal data. Board certification can be confirmed with the certifying board (ABMS member boards for MDs, AOA boards for DOs).

Specialties and state licenses

  • Vascular & Interventional Radiology Physician primary
    LA license MD,026227
  • Student in an Organized Health Care Education/Training Program
    TX license BP20028680

As reported to the NPI registry. To confirm a license is current, check the state medical board.
