Add National Provider Identifiers
Intelligent Appointment Management uses a numeric ID to specify a practitioner or
facility. In the US, this ID is the National Provider Identifier (NPI), but you can substitute the
ID used in your country or region. To record a provider’s ID, create a Healthcare Provider NPI
record.
