- OP will look first for the Tax ID in the Insurance Payer Provider Details > Line 25 (Tax ID) field.
- OP will look second to the Locations tab > Tax ID (Corporate) field.
- If both of the above fields are blank, OP will look to Staff/Provider Directory > Provider Info tab > Federal Tax ID field.
For a visual representation of this order, see the table below:
