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 ## Healthcare Provider Leads Scraper: NPI Contacts by Specialty Build US healthcare provider lead lists from the official NPI registry (CMS NPPES), the public record every practicing provider and healthcare organization must be in. Search by specialty, state, city, or ZIP and get one JSON row per provider with the practice phone number, address, specialty taxonomy, and license, and for organizations the authorized official: the decision maker's name, title, and phone. Keyless official government API: no login, no browser, no per-seat directory subscription. Built for dental and medical software vendors, device and supply reps, healthcare recruiters and staffing agencies, insurance and billing services, and local marketers selling to practices. ### What you get One row per provider, with: - `npi`, `providerType` (individual or organization), `name`, `credential` - `specialty`, `taxonomyCode`, `licenseNumber`, `licenseState` - `phone`, `fax`, `address1`, `address2`, `city`, `state`, `postalCode` - `authorizedOfficialName`, `authorizedOfficialTitle`, `authorizedOfficialPhone` (organizations: the practice's decision maker) - `status`, `enumerationDate`, `lastUpdated`, `profileUrl` `enumerationDate` tells you how new the provider is: recently enumerated NPIs are new practices and new graduates, the leads with no incumbent vendors yet. ### Input - `specialties` (matched against taxonomy descriptions, e.g. dentist, chiropractor, physical therapy, family medicine, pharmacy) - `states` / `cities` / `postalCodes` (a trailing `*` on a ZIP matches the prefix, e.g. `787*` for all of Austin) - `providerType` (both, individuals only, or organizations only — organizations carry the decision-maker fields) - `maxProviders` (default 50, up to 2000) - `dedupe` (skip previously returned NPIs; built for scheduled prospecting) ### Example input ```json { "specialties": ["dentist"], "states": ["TX"], "providerType": "organization", "maxProviders": 200 } ```` ### Example output ```json { "npi": "1154494250", "providerType": "organization", "name": "360 DENTAL CARE P.A.", "specialty": "Dentist, General Practice", "taxonomyCode": "1223G0001X", "phone": "512-327-3631", "address1": "3300 BEE CAVES RD STE 305", "city": "AUSTIN", "state": "TX", "postalCode": "787468106", "authorizedOfficialName": "JANE DOE", "authorizedOfficialTitle": "OWNER", "authorizedOfficialPhone": "512-327-3631", "enumerationDate": "2009-02-01", "profileUrl": "https://npiregistry.cms.hhs.gov/provider-view/1154494250" } ``` ### Uses - Call and mail lists for anyone selling software, devices, supplies, or services to practices, segmented by specialty and geography - Organizations mode: skip gatekeepers and get the authorized official's name and title per practice - Healthcare recruiters: every licensed provider in a specialty and metro, with license numbers - Scheduled prospecting with `dedupe` on: only never-seen providers each run - Chain practice names into the Website Contact Scraper for emails once you have the list ### Pricing Pay per provider row. Providers without any phone number are free rows, and searches that match nothing cost nothing. The first 2 rows of every run are free so you can validate output before you scale up. ### Notes - Data comes from the official CMS NPPES NPI registry API and reflects what providers filed; addresses are practice locations, and phone coverage is near universal. - A state on its own is not accepted by the registry; combine it with a specialty, city, or ZIP. - Wide searches fan out: each specialty x location combo pages through the registry 200 rows at a time. # Actor input Schema ## `specialties` (type: `array`): Specialty keywords matched against NPI taxonomy descriptions, e.g. dentist, chiropractor, physical therapy, family medicine, pharmacy. ## `states` (type: `array`): Two-letter US state codes, e.g. TX, CA, NY. Empty = all states. ## `cities` (type: `array`): City names, combined with each state if states are set. ## `postalCodes` (type: `array`): 5-digit ZIPs; a trailing \* matches a prefix, e.g. 787\* for all of Austin. Used instead of cities/states when set. ## `providerType` (type: `string`): Individual providers (doctors, dentists), organizations (practices, clinics, pharmacies), or both. ## `maxProviders` (type: `integer`): Cap on provider rows returned. Controls total cost. ## `dedupe` (type: `boolean`): Remember returned NPIs across runs and skip them. Turn on for scheduled prospecting. ## Actor input object example ```json { "specialties": [ "dentist" ], "states": [ "TX" ], "cities": [], "postalCodes": [], "providerType": "all", "maxProviders": 50, "dedupe": false } ``` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "specialties": [ "dentist" ], "states": [ "TX" ] }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("scrapemint/healthcare-provider-leads").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
