I applied for my National Provider Identifier (NPI) by paper and do not have an NPPES User ID and password. How do I obtain them?
A physician or non-physician practitioner who did not establish a User ID and password in NPPES but applied for an NPI using the paper application can still establish a User ID and password in NPPES by going to NPPES at https://nppes.cms.hhs.gov/nppes. The NPI Enumerator at 1-800-465-3203 can provide assistance.
