Apparently it's impossible to find out your own CNN (CMS Certification Number). Unlike the NPI which anyone can look up on a database with just your name, the CNN is mysteriously kept secret. My new employer insists that I have such a number. I was told to ask HR or the billing department at my current job. My present employer insists that they do not use individual provider CNN numbers. I can't find any place to search for the CNN number on the CMS website. Google searches suggest calling a mysterious Medicare contact (who would that be?) or say you have to be associated with the provider to obtain the number (um, hi, I AM the provider and still can't find my alleged CNN number). Thank you to a government that allows employers to obtain numbers in my name but does not mandate that the employer ever notify me what the number might be.
