# Provider address and exclusion field check

For one NPI under review. Billing fraud often leaves an address with no clinic behind it or a freshly formed entity; this checks both before a field visit.

## 1. What the provider claims

1. Read @[NPI Registry · Provider](alexandria:npiregistry-cms-hhs-gov/providers/provider) (npi): entity type, enumeration date, last update, taxonomies, authorised official for organisations.
2. List every practice site with @[NPI Registry · Locations](alexandria:npiregistry-cms-hhs-gov/providers/locations). Recent changes and many sites for a small practice are worth noting.

## 2. What is really there

3. For each address, search @[Maps · Search](alexandria:firecrawl-maps/businesses/search) (the street address). Record whether a medical business appears, what kind and whether it has reviews. A mailbox store, residence or unrelated business is a flag.

## 3. Who is behind it

4. Look up the practice entity in its state registry, for example @[Georgia eCorp · Search businesses](alexandria:ecorp-sos-ga-gov/entities/search_businesses) then @[Georgia eCorp · Get business](alexandria:ecorp-sos-ga-gov/entities/get_business), or @[Florida Sunbiz · Search](alexandria:search-sunbiz-org/entities/search). Note formation date versus NPI enumeration date and officers who are not clinicians.

## 4. History

5. Screen the provider, entity and officers with @[OpenSanctions · Search entities](alexandria:opensanctions-org/sanctions-screening/search_entities) (datasets us_sam_exclusions plus state Medicaid exclusion datasets).
6. Search @[CourtListener · Search dockets](alexandria:courtlistener-com/dockets/search_dockets) (party_name) for health care fraud or False Claims Act cases.
