Provider Search

To locate and view or update provider and program information or to add programs use the Provider Search. Local areas can search and view all providers but only have access to edit the providers in their local area. Local providers can also search for and view all RA sponsors but cannot edit their details or programs. You cannot make status changes to records accessed using the Provider Search. To make status changes to providers or programs, use the queues available from the Local Area Approval Menu.
