HRSA is temporarily waiving query fees for health care entities to search the National Practitioner Data Bank (NPDB). This waiver supports efforts to mobilize and deploy health professionals during the COVID-19 pandemic by reducing costs and expediting credentialing, hiring, privileging, and licensing processes.
The NPDB fee waiver is retroactive from Sunday, March 1, and extends through Sunday, May 31. The NPDB will issue query credits to reimburse entities that conducted queries (one-time and continuous) between March 1 and this announcement.
