How to Sign in to Your NPDB Report

If you are signing in to view your NPDB report for the first time, you will need information from the notification letter you received from the NPDB.

You will need to enter the Account ID from your letter. If you are viewing a report for an organization, you will enter an Access Code. If you do not have the letter, you must request a Self-Query to access your report.

Effective September 26, 2024, the NPDB requires all accounts to be identity verified to sign in. This is required to comply with the federal government's cybersecurity standards issued by NIST, the National Institute of Standards and Technology. The NPDB has partnered with ID.me to meet these standards.
