What is the difference between an organizational and an individual Self-Query?

Individual Self-Queries search the NPDB for reports on individual health care professionals or practitioners. In many cases, organizations request that health care professionals or practitioners complete an individual Self-Query.
Organizational Self-Queries search the NPDB for reports on organizations.

Note: Only the subject of a Self-Query may complete a Self-Query order.
