A new Routine Use seventeen (17) is added. Provider identifying information may be disclosed from this System of Records to CMS to test the enumeration system for the NPI and, once the system is operational, to obtain a NPI for any eligible healthcare professional providing examination or treatment within VA healthcare facilities. VA needs the NPI to be able to bill for services provided by the healthcare provider. The Privacy Act permits VA to disclose information about individuals without their consent for a routine use when the information will be used for a purpose that is compatible with the purpose for which we collected the E:\FR\FM\20SEN1.SGM 20SEN1
