Identifier checkdigit invalid (National Provider Identifier (United States)) This rule checks the checkdigit of National Provider Identifier (United States) according to the following the logic:
  • Step 1 - Starting at the right most digit, which should be the check digit. Double the value of every second digit.
  • Step 2 - Take the sum of all the individual digits.
  • Step 2a - If a doubled value is 2-digits (i.e. 8 was doubled to 16), you add the two digits together (i.e. the doubled value of 16 would be: 1 + 6)
  • Step 3 - Add 24 to the value
  • Step 4 - Take the units digit (i.e. if the number was 67, you would take 7).
  • Step 5 - Subtract the units digit from 10. (Do this step only if the units digit isn't zero)
  • Step 6 - The resulting number is the check digit.

Any difference results in a violation of this rule
