US + territories coverage

JSON / CSV / Excel output formats

The most complete NPI provider export on Apify. Every record carries a ready-to-use full name, a deduplicated list of every phone and fax number across all locations, the full taxonomy list with license numbers, all secondary practice locations, the organization's authorized official and parent organization, other identifiers such as Medicaid and payer IDs, and deactivation and reactivation dates for lapsed providers. This is the contact and credentialing depth that medtech, pharma and staffing teams pay for.

Search filters

Search the whole registry or target a segment. Filters include provider type (individual or organization), first and last name with wildcards, organization name, taxonomy or specialty, city, state, ZIP and country code. Advanced controls let you match the city, state and ZIP against the primary practice, mailing or additional-location address, search a name against the organization's authorized official instead of the provider, and turn first-name aliases on or off for exact matching. You can also paste a list of exact NPI numbers for direct bulk lookup.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this cover the whole United States?
Yes. The NPPES NPI Registry is the national US registry, so the actor reaches every individual provider and organization across all 50 states, the District of Columbia and US territories including Puerto Rico, Guam and the Virgin Islands. Filter by the two-letter state code to narrow results.

How many providers can one search return?
A single search returns up to roughly 1200 matching records. For larger pulls, split your search into narrower queries, for example by adding a city, postal code or a specific taxonomy, and run them separately. Looking up exact NPI numbers has no such cap.

Can I search by medical specialty?
Yes. Use the Taxonomy / Specialty field with a description such as Dentist, Pharmacy, Internal Medicine or Chiropractor. You can combine it with a state, city or ZIP code, and restrict to individuals or organizations.

Can I look up specific providers by NPI?
Yes. Paste a list of 10-digit NPI numbers into the NPI Numbers field and the actor fetches each provider directly, ignoring the search filters. Invalid or missing NPIs are reported in the output rather than silently dropped.

What happens when a field has no value?
Fields that do not apply are returned as null and are never invented. Individual-only fields such as gender and credential are null for organizations, and organization-only fields such as authorized official are null for individuals.
