npi: Access the U.S. National Provider Identifier Registry API
Description
Access the United States National Provider Identifier Registry API https://npiregistry.cms.hhs.gov/api/. Obtain and transform administrative data linked to a specific individual or organizational healthcare provider, or perform advanced searches based on provider name, location, type of service, credentials, and other attributes exposed by the API.
Details
npi makes it easy to search and work with data from the U.S.
National Provider Identifier (NPI) Registry API (v2.1) directly from R.
Obtain rich administrative data linked to a specific individual or
organizational healthcare provider, or perform advanced searches based on
provider name, location, type of service, credentials, and many other
attributes. npi provides convenience functions for data extraction so you can
spend less time wrangling data and more time putting data to work.
There are three functions you're likely to need from this package. The first
is npi_search, which allows you to query the NPI Registry and
returns up to 1,200 full NPI records as a data frame (tibble). Next, you can
use npi_summarize on these results to obtain a human-readable
summary of each record. Finally, npi_flatten extracts and
flattens conceptually-related subsets of data into a tibble that are joined
by the 'npi' column into an analysis-ready object.
Package options
npi's default user agent is the URL of the package's GitHub
repository, https://github.com/ropensci/npi. You can customize
it by setting the npi_user_agent option:
options(npi_user_agent = "your_user_agent_here")
