How to Add Preferred Providers to Vim's Order Assist

What are Preferred Providers in Order Assist?

Preferred Providers is a feature in Vim Order Assist that lets your practice highlight and manage your own list of preferred referral destinations. These appear at the top of search results within EHR referral workflows.

How to Activate Preferred Providers:

1. Download the Template: Use this link to download the Preferred Providers template to be used for bulk upload. Note – preferred providers can also be added one at a time.
2. Customize the Template: It is now possible to specify a particular destination or “sub-location” for your organization’s Preferred Providers. Previously, your organization’s Preferred Providers (that are included in Order Assist search results) would display all available locations for each preferred provider. Now, you can download and use the above template to limit the displayed information for each preferred provider to your specified sub-locations by completing all the columns in each row within the CSV including NPI, First Name, Last Name, Address 1, City, Zip, and State. If you want to include all locations for your Preferred Providers, you would only complete the following fields in the above spreadsheet: NPI, First Name, and Last Name.
3. Send Customized Template to Vim: Provide your Customer Success Manager (CSM) with your Preferred Provider CSV so we can upload it for you. Simply send the CSV file from the link above directly to your CSM after completing it.
4. View in Vim Order Assist: We will notify you once this has been completed. You will see your organization’s Preferred Provider list (with or without specified sub-locations) in applicable search results when using the Vim Order Assist application and can easily select in-network preferred providers directly.
