Troubleshooting

No Search Results?

  1. Check that the correct Health Program is selected.
  2. Check the entry is spelled correctly:
    • For individuals, try using the last name only.
    • For hospitals/clinics, try using only the facility name and leave “hospital” or “clinic” off.
    • For services, be sure to enter the name of the specialty (i.e.: “obstetrics”) not the physician’s title (i.e.: “obstetrician”).
  3. Check that you have the correct city, state, and/or zip code.
  4. Expand the distance wider to capture more results.
