Searching for an Ordering Provider

1. Enter one or more characters in the search field, and then click the Search button. You may use an asterisk in the search field to search for names, using either complete or incomplete first or last names. For example:
• *
• *,*
• "last name",*
• *,"first name"
2. If there is at least one match to your search, then the matching provider names are displayed. Each provider is listed with a Name, ID, and Phone number.
3. If the list is longer than one page, use the Page links, located below the list of locations, to navigate through the list. If there are more page links than can fit on the page at once, Copia displays the Page field. Enter a number in this field and press the Enter key on the keyboard to immediately open the selected page.
4. Click the name of a provider to return to the previous page with that name selected for the Ordering Provider field. If the name you click is an external provider, Copia opens the Add External Provider page. Click Save in that page to return to the previous page.
5. If there were no matches to your search, repeat the search, if desired, or add an external provider (see "Adding an External Provider" below).
6. Click Cancel to return to the previous page without selecting a provider.

Adding an External Provider

2. Click Cancel to return to the previous page without selecting a provider.
