Healthcare providers with a federal NPI, statewide

Every active federal provider number issued to a healthcare business in Minnesota — clinics, home care agencies, nursing homes, pharmacies, dental practices, medical transport — with the address it practises from, what it does, the other names it trades under, and the person who signed for it at CMS. One row is one provider number rather than one business, because a hospital is issued a separate number for each service it runs. It is the only file here that reaches the whole state, and the only one that puts a named human beside a business at this scale. It is not a list of who is enrolled in a Minnesota programme, and it cannot be made into one.

This file covers the whole state and still cannot be pointed at your address. NPPES publishes a street and a city, never a coordinate, so a radius has to run through our address index — and that index is the counties that publish an open address layer, not all 87. It now reaches 56 of them, so Duluth and St Cloud are in it where they were not before. But 31 Minnesota counties publish no open address layer at all, which is why Mankato and Bemidji cannot be reached — and Olmsted publishes 424 addresses for the entire county, so neither can Rochester. Filtering by address would hand those visitors a confident zero about a file holding hundreds of rows for them. Filter on the city column instead; it holds all 714.

Ground covered: Minnesota — statewide. 714 cities in the file — the registry behind it records a city and never a county, so this file names no counties. · 18 columns available · free, no account, no rate limit.

What the rows look like

10 real rows from this file, spread evenly across it rather than taken off the top — every file here is written in some order, so its first rows are never a fair sample of it. These are the default columns, which is what the download button hands over.

An em dash means the record is blank, and that is the source's gap rather than ours. Across the whole file: trades as is blank on 69.6% of rows.

Where it comes from

NPPES — the CMS National Plan and Provider Enumeration System monthly full replacement file (download.cms.gov/nppes/), with provider types named from the NUCC Health Care Provider Taxonomy code set 251

Records retrieved 2026-08-23 — the oldest capture date among the layers behind this file, because data is no fresher than its stalest input.

What this layer cannot answer is stated in full on the system card — read it before quoting a figure.

What you may do with it

Point an AI at it

Every file carries its own source, its capture date and the layer's own warnings in the header, so a model reading one gets the caveats with the numbers rather than the numbers alone. Paste this at an assistant that can fetch a URL:

Everything above the header row is provenance and limits. Read it first,
then answer using only what the rows support.

llms.txt describes the whole warehouse the same way — what each dataset holds, which counties it really covers, and what it cannot answer.
