Global Cross-Entity Search
One search bar across 17 entity types — claims, payments, documents, offenders, payees, providers — queried in parallel. Staff find records without knowing where they live.
Key benefits
- · Single search bar returns hits across 17 registered entities
- · Parallel repository queries for fast response
- · Results labeled by entity type with ShortName and context
- · Works across VcClaim, FrClaim, ExpenseBill, TreatmentPlan, IncomeLoss, Payment, PaymentItem, PaymentBatch, SourceFund, FundCollection, ServiceBill, Payee, ServiceProvider, Offender, InDocument, OutDocument, StdFormInstance
Why this saves time
A back-office staff member looking for “Johnson” doesn’t always know whether Johnson is a victim, a claimant, an offender, a service provider, or a payee. With a per-entity search, they’d have to check five screens. VCPMS’s global search returns hits from all 17 indexed entity types at once, labeled so the user can disambiguate.
The 17 entities
Core claims: VcClaim, FrClaim, SafeClaim (implicit). Benefits: ExpenseBill, TreatmentPlan, IncomeLoss, ServiceBill. Financial: Payment, PaymentItem, PaymentBatch, SourceFund, FundCollection. Parties: Payee, ServiceProvider, Offender. Documents: InDocument, OutDocument, StdFormInstance.
Performance
Repository queries run in parallel. Results are merged and labeled before returning to the UI — no five-second waits while the system walks entities one at a time.
