On August 10, 2008, the National Plan and Provider Enumeration System (NPPES) will undergo system maintenance. Neither NPPES nor the NPI Registry will be available on August 10, 2008. CMS will be implementing some enhancements/updates to the system. A detailed listing of the NPPES enhancements/updates can be found at http://www.cms.hhs.gov/NationalProvIdentStand/Downloads/Revised_NPPES_Enhancements.pdf on the CMS NPI web page.

Still not sure what an NPI is and how you can get it, share it and use it?
