Grand Avenue, Suite 1402 Lansing, MI 48933-1805 Phone: 517-284-2953 SERVICE PROVIDERS Multiple Provider ID Numbers Some providers may be assigned to more than one provider ID number. This occurs when the company wants to differentiate between several business locations. Multiple provider ID numbers may be assigned to the same business or individual when the provider chooses to be enrolled and paid under a Federal Employer Identification Number (FEIN). Multiple provider ID numbers cannot be assigned when the provider chooses to be enrolled and paid under a Social Security Number (SSN). An individual who would like to obtain a FEIN should contact the Internal Revenue Service or the U.S. Post Office to obtain a Form SS-4, Application for Employer Identification Number. It may take several weeks to obtain a FEIN. When a provider has been assigned multiple provider ID numbers, local office staff must review the enrolled name, address and tax identification number carefully before authorizing payment, to ensure that the correct provider ID number is used.
