The Health Industry Number (HIN®) System

HIN is a standard healthcare location identifier, enabling trading partners to accurately identify and manage healthcare facilities, departments, and service locations.

It supports:

  • Regulatory compliance
  • Chargebacks and rebates
  • Class of trade management
  • Supply chain data alignment
  • Electronic data exchange

HIN is also used in the 340B Drug Pricing Program to identify covered entity, contract pharmacy, and shipping addresses. By providing a consistent identifier, HIN supports 340B data alignment and supply chain efficiency.
