Provider Directory at a Glance
The Provider Directory is a quick way to look up contact information for your colleagues. The provider list includes providers who are associated with your organization. Other providers in your geographic area can also be listed in the directory, depending on how the list is set up at the institution. The directory usually includes phone numbers (home, office, service, pager, or mobile). Other information can be included like specialties, departments, addresses, and e-mail addresses.
