This NPI scraper turns the official CMS NPPES registry into clean, contactable healthcare-provider leads — every licensed US doctor, dentist, therapist, pharmacy, clinic, and facility. Search by specialty, state, city, ZIP, or name and get one flat row per provider: name + credential, specialty, NPI, status, phone, fax, full practice address, and license. Filter to active / with-phone, dedupe, and export to CSV, JSON, or Excel.

Built for medical-device & pharma sales, healthcare recruiters, billing/RCM & MSO services, insurance, and B2B marketers who need callable provider leads by specialty + location — straight from the authoritative government source, no API key.

Why this beats a generic "doctor list"

• Authoritative + current — the official CMS NPPES NPI Registry (every US provider must enroll), not a stale scraped list.
• Phone on most records — the practice-location phone, so leads are callable out of the box.
• 0-100 lead_score — a contactability score (phone, active status, license, payer IDs, multiple locations, recency) so you can work the best leads first.
• Decoded payer IDs — medicare_id, medicaid_id, and other identifiers pulled out of the registry — a feature paid provider databases charge for, free here.
• Every practice location — a practice_locations array (address + phone per site) and a location_count, not just the primary address rivals stop at — map a provider's whole footprint.
• Specialty-precise — search by taxonomy ("physical therapist", "dermatology", "pharmacy") instead of fuzzy keywords, with taxonomy_group + taxonomy_code and all secondary specialties.
• Direct/FHIR secure_endpoints surfaced for health-IT and interoperability outreach.
• Clean flat rows — NPPES returns deeply nested JSON; this flattens it to a spreadsheet, with the primary specialty and practice address extracted for you.
• No API key, no anti-bot, no proxies — public government data.

How to use it

1. Enter a specialty (taxonomy) and/or a state / city / ZIP — or a specific provider/organization name.
2. Choose provider type (individuals, organizations, or both) and optional filters (active only, has-phone).
3. Run → get a clean, deduped provider list.

Input

Tip: NPPES caps any single query at 1,200 results. For a whole specialty nationwide, run it once per state (and per city for dense specialties) to get full coverage.

Example input:

{
"taxonomy":"dentist",
"state":"CA",
"providerType":"individual",
"onlyWithPhone":true,
"maxItems":500
}

Use with AI agents & automation

Run from the Apify MCP server so AI agents (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor) can pull provider leads as a tool call, schedule runs via Make, n8n, or Zapier to feed a CRM, or sync the dataset to Google Sheets. Clean flat JSON drops into sales pipelines with no glue code.

Pricing

Pay-per-event — charged per provider lead delivered. Source data is the free public NPPES API (no proxy or third-party cost). See the Apify Store page for the current per-result price.

FAQ

Where does the data come from? The official NPPES NPI Registry maintained by CMS (the U.S. Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services) — public, authoritative data every US provider must enroll in.

Do I need an API key? No. It works key-free.

Is there an email field? NPPES does not publish provider emails — it exposes the practice phone, fax, and address. Pair with a website-email finder if you need email.

Why only 1,200 per search? That's NPPES's own cap per query. Run per-state (and per-city for big specialties) to cover an entire specialty.

Is this legal? NPPES data is public US government data released for exactly this kind of use. Follow applicable calling/marketing laws (TCPA, Do-Not-Call) when you contact providers.

Can I export to CSV or Google Sheets? Yes — CSV, JSON, or Excel from the Output tab, or sync to Google Sheets via Make, n8n, or Zapier.
