## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## New NPI Healthcare Providers: Weekly New NPPES Registrations

Get **every newly issued NPI** (National Provider Identifier) from the official CMS NPPES weekly file: brand-new doctors, dentists, nurse practitioners, therapists, chiropractors, home health agencies, clinics and group practices. Each record includes the name, specialty (taxonomy), license, **practice address and phone**, and for organizations the **authorized official (owner/officer) with phone**. Filter by date, state, individual vs organization, specialty keyword or taxonomy code.

About **13,000 new NPIs** are issued every week. A new NPI usually means a new practice, a new clinician starting out, or a provider going independent, which is exactly when they buy.

### Who uses this

- **Medical billing, RCM and credentialing companies:** new providers need payer enrollment and billing on day one.
- **Malpractice and practice insurance agents.**
- **EHR, practice-management, telehealth and scheduling software.**
- **Medical, dental and lab suppliers and equipment leasing.**
- **Healthcare staffing and recruiters.**
- **Practice lenders, CPAs and consultants** who serve new practices.
- **Pharma and device reps** building territory lists.

### Quick start

1. Set **Enumerated in the last N days** (14 covers the latest weekly file) and pick **States**.
2. Optional: **Provider type** = Organizations for new practices, and **Specialty keywords** like `dentist`, `chiropractor`, `home health`, `physical therapist`.
3. Run, then export to CSV, Excel or JSON, or use the API.
4. **Weekly feed:** schedule it every Tuesday with `daysBack` = 8 and connect it to Google Sheets, HubSpot, Zapier, Make or a webhook.

#### Example input

```json
{ "daysBack": 14, "states": ["TX", "FL"], "entityType": "Organization", "taxonomyKeywords": ["dentist"], "requirePhone": true, "maxItems": 500 }
```

### Pricing

**$2 per 1,000 results** ($0.002 per provider), plus a negligible start fee. No proxies, no subscription.

- All new Texas organizations for a week (~700 records) ≈ **$1.40**
- Use `maxItems` to cap spend.

### Why this actor

- **Official source:** the CMS NPPES Data Dissemination weekly file, not scraped HTML. Stable and fast.
- **New providers only:** filtered on the NPI issue date, so you don't pay for millions of old records.
- **Lead-ready:** decoded specialties, authorized official contact, and filters for state, type and specialty.

### FAQ

**How fresh is the data?** CMS publishes a new weekly file every Monday covering the previous week.

**Does it include emails?** No. NPPES does not publish emails. You get practice phone, fax and the authorized official's phone.

**Why is a specialty name sometimes blank?** A few rare taxonomy codes have no description in the public lists. The code is always included.

### Compliance note

The data is public U.S. government information (CMS NPPES). You are responsible for how you use it. Follow **TCPA / DNC rules** for calls and texts and **CAN-SPAM** for email, honor opt-outs, and don't use it for any purpose prohibited by law. Not affiliated with CMS or HHS.

## CLI example

```bash
echo '{
  "states": [
    "TX"
  ]
}' |
apify call jaybeckham/nppes-new-npi-providers --silent --output-dataset

```

## MCP server setup

```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "apify": {
            "type": "http",
            "url": "https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,jaybeckham/nppes-new-npi-providers"

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
