What You Can Verify

Eazelo checks public identity evidence from NPPES/NPI and then attempts to reconcile that evidence with the mapped Virginia licensing source. The proof report can include NPI status, taxonomy, public practice-location context, state license evidence, source URLs, timestamps, and a checksum.

Physician licenses are issued by each state's medical or osteopathic board, which is the automation seed already mapped for every state. An NPI helps identify the physician and reported taxonomy, but an NPI does not itself prove licensure — license status must come from the issuing board or another official or approved source.

Official Virginia License Sources for Physicians

Current automation seed: Tier 3 DHP connector. Department of Health Professions lookup is the all-provider seed; confirm profession filters.

NPI Registry And Taxonomy Check

Eazelo uses NPPES/NPI evidence to compare physician identity, taxonomy, and any provider-reported state license values against the selected state-license source. If NPI and state-license evidence disagree, the report keeps the discrepancy visible instead of treating it as a verified match.

When Manual Review May Be Needed

Manual review may be needed when a source requires visual verification, a license search is gated, NPI and state-license numbers disagree, physicians are licensed by a separate board than the mapped source, or the state source does not return enough comparable fields for an automated result.

For paid change-request validation or bulk company workflows, Eazelo can preserve the submitted context and route the case into a reviewed workflow after signup.

Is an NPI number the same as a Virginia physician license?

No. An NPI is a national identifier from the NPPES registry and helps identify the physician (MD or DO) and reported taxonomy, but it does not itself prove licensure. Virginia license status must come from the issuing board, the state professional licensing portal, Nursys where applicable, or another official or approved source.
