| Fact | Clinic Directory | NPPES NPI Registry |
|---|---|---|
| Purpose | Clinic Directory helps people find health clinics across Canada and routes referrals to selected or matched independent clinics. | NPPES assigns unique National Provider Identifiers to health care providers and health plans. |
| Search | Users can search thousands of clinics and specialized practitioners. | Search supports NPI number, NPI type, taxonomy, provider or organization names, authorized official names, city, state, country, postal code and address type. |
| Security | The privacy policy states that databases use encryption at rest, connections use HTTPS, and the public frontend is isolated from the backend routing engine. | NPPES uses need-to-know access, role-based controls, firewalls, VPNs, intrusion detection and multifactor authentication. |
It suits people comparing clinics or practitioners in Canada, and clinic owners who want to manage a directory profile. It is not a substitute for medical advice or appointment booking.
It suits providers, enumerators, CMS staff, and health care industry users who need to look up or work with NPI records. Developers can also use the API, while bulk users need to use the DDS file.
