Definition

The NCPDP Provider Identification number (NCPDP Provider ID), formerly known as the NABP number, was developed to provide pharmacies with a unique, national identifier that would assist pharmacies in their interactions with pharmacy payers and claims processors. The NCPDP Provider ID is a seven-digit numbering system that is assigned to every licensed pharmacy and qualified Non-Pharmacy Dispensing Site (NPDS) in the United States.
