Hawaii Medicaid Provider List with NPI, Hawaii State Licensed Healthcare Practitioner List with NPI

To Whom It May Concern:

Pursuant to the Hawaii Uniform Information Practices Act, I hereby request the following records:

I am requesting an opportunity to inspect or obtain copies of public records that include an updated list of all Hawaii State Medicaid healthcare providers and ALL Hawaii state licensed healthcare providers via an electronic data set (either CSV, excel, or PDF electronic format) to include all Dentists, and Dental Assistants. All types of licensed healthcare practitioners (Dentists, and Dental Assistants. Regardless of general or specialization.) from all dates electronically available would be appreciated. Specific items to be included in the data set:
1. Provider name
2. National Provider Identification (NPI) number
3. Hawaii State Healthcare License number and initial date of issuance or expiry (if available/applicable)
4. Education / School/Training, if available
5. Provider type (DDS, DMD, etc.)
6. Specialty
7. Practice Location

If there are any fees for searching or copying these records, please inform me of such instances. However, I would also like to request a waiver of all fees in that the disclosure of the requested information is in the public interest and will contribute significantly to the public’s healthcare transparency, fairness, and public awareness.
If you expect a significant delay in responding to and fulfilling this request, please contact me by phone or via email with information about when I might expect copies or the ability to inspect the requested records.
If you deny any or all of this request, please cite each specific exemption you feel justifies the refusal to release the information and notify me of the appeal procedures available to me under the law.
Thank you for considering my request.

The requested documents will be made available to the general public, and this request is not being made for commercial purposes.

In the event that there are fees, I would be grateful if you would inform me of the total charges in advance of fulfilling my request. I would prefer the request filled electronically, by e-mail attachment if available or CD-ROM if not.

Thank you in advance for your anticipated cooperation in this matter. I look forward to receiving your response to this request within 10 business days, as the statute requires.

Sincerely,

David Kalayanaprapruit
