National Physician Identifier Number (for USA MDs only)
The 2010 federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA) requires most of our exhibitors to log encounters in their exhibit booth with US physicians by collecting each National Physician Identifier Number. In order to assist our exhibitors in this task SABCS will incorporate the number in the bar code on each US physician’s symposium badge.

Please note that the Physician Identifier Number is required in order for USA MDs to complete their symposium registration, whether registering as a an individual or part of a group registration.
