• View patient records

• Compare patient records

• Merge and unmerge patient records

• Compare records that are flagged as possible duplicates

• Resolve or merge potential duplicate records

• Review and reverse automatic record matches made by the master index

• Create reports on master index data and statistics, including records added or updated, potential duplicates, merged and unmerged records, and so on
