The Health Industry Number (HIN) for Providers
The HIN is a unique and standardized identifier that enumerates hospitals, providers, suppliers, and all other partners doing business in the supply chain. It is the method used by your trading partners for identifying locations of services and activities at your facilities.
HIN information is available to you, as a hospital or provider, without charge, via your GPO (Group Purchasing Organization) or medical supplier/distributor. Organizations are encouraged to periodically review and update their HIN assignments, as well as to request additional assignments for locations that have not yet been enumerated with a HIN.
As a Provider you may also access your HIN directly from HIBCC. The process can be initiated by completing the HIN request form in the Obtain Your HIN link below.
