    Search Aliases

    Clear this  check box if you want to exclude alternate names for the organization from the search criteria.  

    Family Name

    Enter part of the name of the family that the organization belongs to, or, to narrow your search, enter the entire name.

    Address Information

    Enter or select information in the address fields.

    You can select a State from a drop-down list if you select United States from the Country list first.

    If you select both pending role check boxes, search results include only those organization records that contain both pending HCF roles and pending RO roles.

  3. Click Search. The results of your search are displayed in a table below the search criteria fields.

    You can sort the records

    Click the column heading once to sort the records in ascending order.  An arrow head indicates whether the sort order is descending or ascending. Click the column heading again to reverse the sort order.

    Search Tip

    If the organization you were looking for is not listed, you may have searched too narrowly (that is, you may have provided too much information about the organization). If the list of results is very long and contains many organizations that are similar to yours, you can narrow your search by providing more information. If you still don’t find your organization in the CTRP system, you can create it as a new one. For instructions, see Creating New Organization Records.
