• For newborn enrolments:
• check both parent's surnames, or
• key B for BO, B.O, baby of or baby of (key mother's first name) or key N for Newborn in the First Name field
  Note: Service Officers must check the Medicare card number on the FAO81/enrolment application form to determine if the newborn is already enrolled
• Does the name have any hyphens or spaces? When searching for a name with a hyphen, search without the hyphen. For example, Mary-Ann and Mary Ann

Possible matches show under Matched Consumers.

Service Officers must scroll through the lists of possible matched consumers in CDMS. Select List 2, List 3 etc, shown at the bottom right hand side of the CDMS screen. Consumers are listed in Date of Birth descending order (oldest to youngest).

Note: where Service Officers find an existing record, they must take care to avoid creating an intertwined or duplicate record. Make sure the correct record has been identified by confirming a minimum of 3 matching points. See Step 1. This must occur before making any updates to an existing consumer record.
