Detailed Search Criteria

The Basic Search Information portion contains the following fields: (Except for Facility, all these fields are optional).

Patient To search by patient, type the patient's name (last, first) and click Search. When necessary, use a wild card to search for a patient. Avoid using middle initials.

For instance, to search for someone named Smith, James enter the patient's name as Smith, J*. Typing Smith, J will only search for Smith and no first initial.

(The same patient may be represented by one or more names depending on how the information was originally entered into the database. For this reason, you may need to perform multiple searches and check the reports associated with each search to access the right report).

Typing the patient's name and pressing Enter will not generate a search you must press the Search button.
