For those who do not have a CPSE Portal login, the following link will be used:
 
 
 
  • Enter NPI, Profession, and License Number.
  • Select “Proceed to Verification.”
 
The verification screen has three main sections
  1. The list of information from their profile (name, NPI, license, etc.) that needs to be verified and attested that it is correct (upper left)
  2. The information for their license as it appears on the NYS Office of the Professions website (right hand side)
  3. The information from the National NPI Registry for their NPI (bottom left)
  • Be sure to compare the two exactly, as you will be attesting that the information in the Portal is accurate.
  • If any of the data, aside from signature and license dates is not correct or is missing, you should contact the agency you work with.
 
(The categories circled in red must match each other as well.)
  • Once you have confirmed that all of the data is accurate and all of the “verify” boxes are checked, click “I attest.”
  • Here, the successful verification is shown with the option to print.
