Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. 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. Actors are written with capital "A". ## 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. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## NPI Registry API — Healthcare Provider Lookup & Enrichment Search the U.S. NPI Registry (6M+ healthcare providers) and optionally enrich each provider with Google data: website, LinkedIn, social profiles, and secondary emails harvested from the provider's homepage. ### What you get per provider - **NPI #** and enumeration type (individual / organization) - **Provider name** (first + last + credential) or **organization name** - **Authorized official** (CEO / Medical Director name, title, phone) - **Primary taxonomy** (specialty code + description + license) - **Location address** (line, city, state, ZIP, phone, fax) - **Mailing address** - **Status, enumeration date, last updated** - **Google enrichment** *(optional, +2-4s/record)*: website, LinkedIn company page, Facebook page, secondary emails parsed from the website ### Input modes 1. **Free-text search** — by city, state, ZIP, name, specialty (taxonomy). 2. **By NPI #** — look up specific 10-digit NPI numbers (bulk). ### Example input — find dentists in Dallas, TX ```json { "searchMode": "search", "state": "TX", "city": "Dallas", "taxonomyDescription": "Dentist", "maxResults": 100, "enrichWithGoogle": true, "enrichLimit": 25 } ```` ### Example output (single record) ```json { "npi": "1487344586", "enumerationType": "NPI-2", "organizationName": "1 FAMILY CLINIC INC", "authorizedOfficial": { "firstName": "MANEESH", "lastName": "SINGHAL", "title": "CEO/ Medical Director", "phone": "2132639095" }, "primaryTaxonomy": { "code": "207QG0300X", "description": "Family Medicine, Geriatric Medicine" }, "locationAddress": { "line1": "701 N ALVARADO ST STE B", "city": "LOS ANGELES", "state": "CA", "postalCode": "900264005", "phone": "213-263-9095" }, "enrichment": { "website": "https://1familyclinic.com", "linkedinUrl": "https://www.linkedin.com/company/1-family-clinic", "secondaryEmails": ["info@1familyclinic.com"] } } ``` ### Pricing Pay-per-result. The free NPI Registry lookup is included; the Google enrichment step is charged per enriched record (each enrichment runs one SERP search + one website fetch). ### Use cases - MedTech and pharma B2B prospecting - Healthcare staffing and locum tenens recruitment - Insurance network discovery - Telehealth platform onboarding - Medical SaaS sales (EHR, RCM, scheduling) - Provider directory enrichment and verification - Local-SEO and reputation management for clinics ### Data source This actor wraps the public **NPI Registry API** maintained by CMS (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services). Data is public-domain federal data. Optional enrichment uses publicly accessible search engine results and the provider's own public website. # Actor input Schema ## `searchMode` (type: `string`): How to query NPI Registry: by free-text search, or by specific NPI numbers. ## `npiNumbers` (type: `array`): List of 10-digit NPI numbers to look up. Used only when searchMode = byNpi. ## `organizationName` (type: `string`): Partial match on organization name. Used in search mode. ## `firstName` (type: `string`): Provider first name (individual NPIs). Used in search mode. ## `lastName` (type: `string`): Provider last name (individual NPIs).

No API key required. Adds ~2-4s per provider. ## `enrichLimit` (type: `integer`): Max number of providers to enrich. Capped to keep runtime bounded. ## `proxyConfig` (type: `object`): Apify proxy for Google enrichment requests. ## Actor input object example ```json { "searchMode": "search", "npiNumbers": [], "enumerationType": "", "maxResults": 200, "enrichWithGoogle": false, "enrichLimit": 50, "proxyConfig": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": [ "RESIDENTIAL" ] } } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `providers` (type: `string`): No description # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
