Creating Community Care Provider Groups

Note: In this release, the task of creating provider groups is performed by CV Portal Administrators.

 

A Community Care Provider Group must be created within CV before assigning a VA patient to a CCP. When a CCP's CV user account is created, VA Staff will be able to associate the provider with a provider group in the CCP's provider profile.

 

A Community Care Provider Group will typically be one or more associated facilities that a provider works with. After a Community Care Provider Group is created, individual providers can be associated with that group.

 

To create a provider group:

 

1. Open the Community Care Provider Management module.

 

2. Click the Create / Edit Community Care Provider Groups link.

 

3. Click Create New Provider Group.

As you type a facility name in the field, CV will autofill facilities matching the entered characters in a drop-down list. Navigate the list using arrow keys and select the highlighted facility by pressing Enter or clicking the facility name.


Alternately, click Browse next to the Facilities field (highlighted in the following figure).
