According to the National Provider Identifier requirement, who must obtain an NPI?

Only physicians and nurses
All covered providers
Only pharmacies and hospitals
Only individual practitioners

The correct answer is: All covered providers

This means that all covered providers must obtain an NPI, not just physicians and nurses or individual practitioners. Covered providers include healthcare practitioners, organizations, and suppliers who furnish healthcare services. This includes physicians, nurses, pharmacies, and hospitals, but also non-physician healthcare providers such as physical therapists, occupational therapists, optometrists, dentists, and many others. Therefore, option B is the most accurate and comprehensive answer.
