Problem: -------- Certain providers who do require NPIs, and who have NPIs entered on their ePas, are not having their NPIs populate in VISTA. VISTA gives a message that states 'this provider doesn't need an NPI, but you can enter one anyway.' Why is VISTA not recognizing these providers as needing NPIs? Resolution: ----------- Modified the routine XUSNPIE3 to remove the inaccurate statement "Need for an NPI value isn't indicated - but you can enter an NPI."
