  3. POST

NPI Reverse Lookup Payload Additions

In the body of the payload during an Add Business call, the following fields MUST be added for a reverse lookup:
  • npi_first_name - the first name of the provider to be checked
  • npi_last_name - the last name of the provider to be checked
These additional fields will prompt Worth systems to do a reverse lookup of the provider and associate their NPI info with their case.
For reverse lookup to find a match, the provider must match to a business registered within the NPI database. If the provider is not associated with a business, no match will be found. If the business is not found, even with a valid provider, no match will be made.
