📋 What the NPI/NPPES Scraper does

Direct NPPES API queries with 10 filters:

• 🆔 NPI lookup. Search by exact 10-digit NPI number.
• 👤 Name search. First and last name for individual providers.
• 📍 Location filters. City, state (2-letter code), and ZIP code.
• 🏥 Specialty filter. Taxonomy description (e.g. "Family Medicine", "Cardiology").
• 🏢 Enumeration type. NPI-1 (individual) or NPI-2 (organization).

Each provider record includes NPI, name, credentials, gender, taxonomy codes, practice address, mailing address, phone, fax, enumeration date, last update, and authorized official info (for organizations).
