CS-Link Tip: Accessing the National Record Locator Services

CS-Link™ allows access to Surescripts' National Record Locator Services (NRLS), which provides a list of healthcare facilities a patient has been seen through the Care Everywhere framework.

The NRLS is automatically contacted when the patient has an upcoming appointment, comes through the Emergency Department, or when admitted. You can view a location summary through the documents tab.

Also, Care Everywhere automatically asks for records from organizations within 50 miles of the patient's home and work ZIP code. In addition, records from Veterans Affairs hospitals can also be reached through Care Everywhere.
