If you are a solo practitioner (not part of a group practice) in South Carolina, you can skip down to the section title, “To Register Individual Practitioners” 

 

If you are a group practice (or a solo practitioner with a Type 2 NPI number) in South Carolina, you must register your group as an OON practice and the individual practitioners within it, separately. We realize that this may seem like a lot of work, but it's a one-time process that should set your practice up for smooth claim filing going forward.
