Chile — Health Worker & Medical Professional Verification (SIS / RNPI)

Validates and verifies medical professionals and individual health providers in the Republic of Chile by RUT (documentNumber or rut) or Full Name (fullName).

The service checks the official Registro Nacional de Prestadores Individuales de Salud (RNPI) maintained by the Superintendencia de Salud (SIS), providing certified confirmation of medical degrees, recognized specialties, issuing institutions, and professional registration status.

• Certified Health Professions: Validates physicians, surgeons (médico cirujano), dentists (cirujano dentista), nurses, midwives, medical technologists, and physical therapists.
• Accredited Medical Specialties: Confirms medical specialties and sub-specialties certified by CONACEM or recognized universities.
• Official Compliance: Essential for clinics, telemedicine platforms, health insurers (FONASA / ISAPRE), and pharmacies to verify provider credentials.
