Verifying instantly with your NPI
PractitionersEnter your 10-digit NPI at registration and your account is verified the moment it matches your name in the national registry. No documents, no waiting.
How the match works
We look your NPI up in NPPES, the national registry run by CMS, and compare the first and last name on the record with the name you registered with. A match verifies you instantly and your pricing unlocks.
When the match fails
The most common reasons:
- The registry still has a maiden name or a former name.
- You registered with a middle name or a nickname as your first name.
- The NPI belongs to your practice (a type 2 organization NPI) rather than to you.
Fix it by updating your NPPES record at nppes.cms.hhs.gov, or by uploading your state license instead. See Getting verified on Kaerwell Health.
Adding your NPI after you registered
If you skipped the step, open your account settings and add it any time. Verification still happens on the spot.
Not sure of your number
Look it up on the NPI Registry at npiregistry.cms.hhs.gov by your name and state.
