CarePrecise Access™ State DatabasesCarePrecise Access State deliveres every data point for each selected state, DC or Puerto Rico, plus non-U.S. practice locations and international Armed Forces locations, contained in the National Plan & Provider Enumeration System (NPPES) The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) developed and maintains this database. All healthcare providers who are HIPAA covered entities must obtain a National Provider Identifier (NPI) by reporting their information via the NPPES. This represents virtually all of U.S. physicians, hospitals, and other providers who accept insurance or are associated with a hospital.
PRICING: Single Purchase $99 | 4 Per Year $299 | 12 Per Year $599 APPLICATION: The product is a pre-processed and normalized version of the NPPES, designed to be used on standard office-class desktop and laptop computers. CarePrecise Access is designed to overcome the filesize issues posed by the NPPES. (See the Access Complete page for additional description.) FILE FORMATS: Every order is delivered in both of the following formats, each containing identical data:
STATES AND COUNTRIES AVAILABLE: To see if your state (including DC and Puerto Rico) is available singly at the above pricing, look for it in the U.S. states list below. NPPES data for practices in other locales, available at the state pricing, are listed in the Non-U.S. list below. Call (918) 406-3998 for assistance or to order.
ORDERING: The product may be ordered as a Single Purchase, or as a 12-month subscription with choice of Monthly Updates or Quarterly Updates. Subscriptions are priced for one full year of updates. Telephone orders are accepted at (918) 406-3998. DELIVERY: Most orders can be delivered within 24 hours via email or download. 
DATA STRUCTURE: CarePrecise Access is distributed as seven normalized relational database tables, each keyed by the National Provider Identifier (NPI) number, plus a core Microsoft Access database that links the seven files together and includes query examples, and CSV versions of the normalized datafiles. Through data normalization, CarePrecise reduces the highly redundant 314-field NPPES flat file structure to 65 unique fields, removing large volumes of unused space while preserving every character of the data and all of the original granularity. The data is in no other way "compressed," but is ready to access at as little as 13% of the original file size (varies), and in a form that can readily be searched, manipulated and imported into applications.
OTHER FORMATS: If you need a different data structure or file format, we can probably accommodate. Contact sales@careprecise.com. OTHER SERVICES: We can match your provider list of NPI numbers with their full NPPES record, or compile lists of specific specialties in specific zip codes. Contact sales@careprecise.com.
