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. What an NPI is

Education and training

  • 2011Registered with an NPI (national billing number; not a license date)

Medicare’s Care Compare data doesn’t list this clinician’s medical school. 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

  • Student in an Organized Health Care Education/Training Program primary

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