About Dermatology Providers
A dermatologist is a medical doctor who specializes in the health, diagnosis, and treatment of conditions affecting the skin, hair, and nails. They treat skin cancer, acne, eczema, psoriasis, and skin infections, and perform cosmetic procedures like mole removals and skin biopsies. Dermatologists complete medical school to earn an MD or DO, a one-year general residency, and a three-year dermatology residency program, followed by board exams. They are trained in both medical dermatology and dermatological surgery to care for patients of all ages.
Finding a dermatologist's NPI number is necessary for insurance pre-authorizations, pharmaceutical prescriptions for skin conditions, and medical billing. Billers must include the dermatologist's NPI on claims for skin checks, biopsies, and surgeries to receive insurance payment. The NPI database verifies the specialist's licensing status, board certifications, and dermatology taxonomy. Patients search the registry to confirm that their dermatologist is registered, helping secure in-network benefits and preventing billing delays.
