Dialysis Provider Number Series
10.9 – Dialysis Provider Number Series
(Rev. 771, Issued: 12-02-05, Effective: 01-03-06, Implementation: 01-03-06)
There are multiple facilities that provide dialysis services to ESRD beneficiaries. To
ensure that provider data is correct, facilities are required to use a Provider Number based
on facility type issued by CMS.
The Provider Number Series for Dialysis Providers are as follows (for CMS use only,
effective May 23, 2007, providers are required to submit only their National Provider
Identifier (NPI). The dialysis provider numbers will be mapped to the NPI):
2300-2499
Chronic Renal Dialysis Facilities (Hospital – Based)
2500-2899
Non – Hospital Renal Facilities
2900-2999
Independent Special Purpose Renal Dialysis Facility
3300-3399
Children’s Hospitals (Excluded from PPS)
3500-3699
Renal Disease Treatment Centers (Hospital Satellites)
3700-3799
Hospital Based Special Purpose Renal Dialysis Facilities
All facilities should use their appropriately assigned provider numbers on the 72x type of
bill. In the event that a facility changes from one type to another, the provider number
must reflect the facility’s present provider type.
