What is a Unique ID?

Unique ID is an identifier used in performing exclusion searches which will allow you to distinguish between your searches with the same criteria (i.e. You have two employees named Sam Smith.) In addition, all searches and their determinations of records are saved in ExclusionCheck so that you never have to review the record twice. 

Once you've reviewed and cleared potential matches in your exclusion search, the next time you perform a search, you will only have new records to review. 

With our new batch search, your unique ID can be a column that you are already including in your search such as employee number, social security number, NPI or a specific column that is designated as your unique ID.

Important: Keep your unique ID consistent on every search. If you change the unique ID for one of your searches, all potential matches will generate again for your review.
