How to Update Profile Information

Updating your organization's profile information gives you the ability to make changes to your payment, notification, and agent-health care organization relationship preferences. It also allows you to update critical profile information, such as a change in your point of contact or the name of your health care organization. Some information can be changed online, while other information requires that you print, sign, and upload a document to the NPDB website.
