Notification Preferences

The NPDB alerts users to information such as report disclosures, change notifications (such as name, age, address), and NPDB Insights. To set your preferences for the frequency and type of NPDB notifications you receive, sign into the NPDB website. Then, depending on your role — Data Bank administrator or user — use the following to set up or change preferences:

• Data Bank administrators can manage their personal notification preferences and their users' notification preferences using the Maintain User Account page within the NPDB system.
• Data Bank administrators can manage their organization's notification preferences using the Entity Notification Preferences page within the NPDB system.
• Users can manage their notification preferences by updating their user account.
