On this screen, you can perform a detailed search against five different types of documents:
These are grouped under two main categories: National (NCD, NCA, CAL, MedCAC, and TA) and Local (Articles and LCD). First decide what type of search you would like to perform. If you have the ID of the document that you want to retrieve, then use the ID Search that appears in the blue bar underneath the tabs. Otherwise, perform a detailed search as described below. When performing an ID Search, the entire ID must be specified, including any letters or dashes. The following are examples of IDs for each type of document:
Step 1
Begin by selecting which documents you would like to search on. The search criteria that appear in Step 2 and 3 below will vary depending on which document type(s) are selected. Step 2
Now enter your search criteria. In this step, you are required to enter search criteria into each of the gray boxes. For some criteria, only a checkbox and label are visible. If you click on the checkbox, the display expands to include the criteria that must be specified. Note that when multiple criteria are entered, only records meeting ALL criteria are returned. Step 3
Now enter any additional search criteria if desired. For some criteria, only a checkbox and label are visible. If you click on the checkbox, the display expands to include the criteria that must be specified. Note that when multiple criteria are entered, only records meeting ALL criteria are returned. For more detailed information regarding search criteria, view Additional Help for Search Page.
