Find Member – the new name for Membership Enquiry

If you access our services through the Veda hub and also have a subscription to one of our Financial Management Solutions this is a quick and easy way to check the membership details of your patients.

This feature has recently had a facelift and, in line with our modern brand, it’s one of the first services to use our API first development promised by our Transformation Programme. You can now also navigate using your keyboard.

Getting started

Click the Records & Reporting tab, then Find Member. This section can also be accessed from the Quick Links menu on the Status page or by clicking the blue square Menq button at the bottom of the menu bar on the right-hand side of the page.

This’ll open Healthcode Authorisation in a new tab which you can leave open in the background. The first time you access the feature you’ll get a welcome message explaining what this feature offers (the ability to view any existing and request new pre-authorisations is coming soon) which you can choose not to see again.
