Medicare enrolment is recorded as approved under the provider type Practitioner - Nurse Practitioner. There are 8 separate enrolment records across 8 states (VA, NC, CT, SC, PA, NY, WI, GA). Multiple enrolments usually mean the provider bills Medicare from more than one practice location, or has kept an earlier enrolment after moving. Each record carries its own enrolment ID, listed above. Being enrolled means the provider can bill Medicare; it does not tell you whether they are currently accepting new Medicare patients. Call the office to confirm.

Licensed in 11 states

This provider holds licences in 11 states: Connecticut, Georgia, North Carolina, North Dakota, New York, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Virginia, Wisconsin and West Virginia. The practice address on file is in Clayton, NC, but a licence in another state usually means they see patients there too — either at a second location or by telehealth.

Full NPPES record

An NPI-1 identifies a single person. It stays with the clinician for life, even if they move practice or change state, which is why the address on file can lag behind where they actually work today.

Number check

1972574176 passes the NPI check digit test The final digit 6 matches the value computed from the first nine digits, so this is a well-formed NPI.
How the check works, step by step

Every NPI carries a Luhn check digit — the same scheme used on credit cards. CMS prefixes the number with 80840 before computing it, which marks it as a US health identifier.

Digit 8 0 8 4 0 1 9 7 2 5 7 4 1 7
Doubled? ×2 ×2 ×2 ×2 ×2 ×2 ×2
Value 8 0 8 8 0 2 9 5 2 1 7 8 1 5

Sum = 64 · next multiple of 10 = 70 · check digit = 6 · actual last digit = 6

A valid check digit only means the number is well-formed. It does not mean the provider is licensed, active, or in good standing — those are separate questions answered by the sections above.
