One of my customers accidentally entered in an NPI number for a staff member that doesn’t have one. OpenEMR doesn’t allow the user to remove the NPI and save a blank field. Is there a reason for this? This seems to be the case for State license numbers too, but OpenEMR allows the end user to replace the State License field with a space, clearing the field.
To make sure it wasn’t due to customer code I tried it with both 422 and 500. If there isn’t a reason, I’ll submit a change to the code.
