Provider-based clinics required to obtain and use a unique National Provider Identifier (NPI) for reimbursement claims, and data submitted as all-payer claims data required to include a provider-based clinic's unique NPI.

This bill requires provider-based clinics in Minnesota to obtain and use their own unique National Provider Identifier (NPI) on all health reimbursement claims. These clinics are defined as off-site facilities owned by hospitals that primarily offer diagnostic and therapeutic care, excluding those that only provide services like pharmacy or lab testing. The law also mandates that any data submitted as all-payer claims information must include this distinct clinic identifier, separate from the hospital's ID. By updating state statutes, the measure aims to improve data accuracy and tracking for these specific medical sites, with an effective date of January 1, 2027.
