The educational resources listed on this web page are designed to increase national awareness and provider education on the NPI. Guidance on NPI Disclosures by Industry Entities to Industry Entities CMS has received numerous inquiries from health plans and other health care industry entities who want to create directories and listings containing health care providers' NPIs. Because there is no publicly-available directory of NPIs, these entities feel it is necessary to create their own, enabling users of the directories to locate NPIs that they may need in order to create HIPAA-compliant transactions. CMS has developed guidance on this issue; you can view the document entitled "NPI Disclosures by Industry Entities to Industry Entities" in the Downloads Section below. NPI Training Package CMS has developed a Training package for NPI that will assist providers with self-education, as well as education of staff. This package is also useful to national and local medical societies for group presentations and training. The entire package will consist of five modules: General Information, Electronic File Interchange (EFI) and Subparts. Each Module consists of a PowerPoint presentation (with speaker's notes) and is designed to stand alone or can be combined with other Modules for a training session tailored to the particular audience. Modules Currently Available (See "NPI Training Package" in the Downloads section below): - Module 1: General Information
- Module 2: Electronic File Interchange (EFI)
- Module 3: Subparts
