Definition A unique identification number assigned to a provider which identifies the physician or other provider who referred the patient. For physicians, this must be the individual's ID number, not a group identification number. If the referring provider number is not available, but the physician's Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) ID is on the State file, then the State should use the DEA ID for this data element.
