A key issue of BYOD which is often overlooked is BYODâs phone number problem, which raises the question of the ownership of the phone number. The issue becomes apparent when employees in sales or other customer-facing roles leave the company and take their phone number with them.
Note: There are some situations, however, in which an NPI may change such as when. health care provider organizations determine they may need a new NPI due to, for. example, certain changes of ownership, the conditions of a purchase, or new ownerâs.
Any Medicare or Medicaid provider must give its NPI to other Medicare providers, health plans or other companies that need it for billing purposes. Anyone can search for a providerâs NPI through the National Plan and Provider Enumeration System, the organization responsible for assigning NPI numbers.
