Wait, is it true that NPI is assigned by NPS?

I feel like I’ve seen a question like this before, and I think the CMS does update the HCPCS code set, so that one should be true.

The statement about health plans getting the NPI sounds off; I thought it was for providers only.

This is a tricky one. I'll need to review the key details about code sets and identifiers to make sure I get this right. Better double-check my notes before answering.

The NPI is assigned to health care providers, not health plans. I'm pretty sure that's the false statement here.

Okay, let me think this through. A covered entity must use the applicable medical code set that is valid at the time the health care is delivered, so that's a true statement. I'll mark that one as true.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused about the NPI. I think it's assigned by the National Provider System, but I'm not 100% sure.

I'm pretty confident about this one. The CPT-4 code set is maintained by the AMA, and the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services are responsible for updating the HCPCS code set.

Haha, I bet the exam writers really wanted to trick us with that NPS thing in Option C. Nice try, but I'm too smart for that!
