National Provider Identifier (NPI)

Please include your NPI number on all paper and electronic claim submissions. Regence needs you to include your NPI and tax identification number for accurate payment processing.

1. Obtain your NPI
If you have not applied for your NPI, complete either a paper form or an online application available on the National Plan & Provider Enumeration System (NPPES) website. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services offers enumeration guidelines and many other NPI-related resources.

2. Submit your NPI to Regence

• Use our online form:
  • Type 1 providers (physicians, dentists and all sole proprietors who are individuals eligible for only one NPI)
  • Type 2 providers (organizations such as physician groups, hospitals, nursing homes, and corporations which may have "subparts" that need their own NPIs).
• Call your provider consultant to report your NPI
• Send your NPI via standard mail to:
  Regence BlueShield of Idaho
  Attn: Provider Operations
  PO Box 1106 MS/LB1W
