My Facility Administrator Access is “Pending”.
- Verify you have completed the Facility Administrator in Train PA. For us to approve access, you must have a training certificate in your name, matching your name in eVitals, for the “PA-BHSR: eVitals (Stakeholders) Facility Administrators Training”.
- Verify your facility registered with Keystone Key (aka “IDM”). All facilities that registered with IDM are listed here.
- If your facility is not listed EXACTLY (must be an exact match) as shown, an authorized representative of the facility must complete the eVitals Facility Registration Form.
- IMPORTANT: Your facility MUST be on this list! Even if you found it in eVitals already, if its not on this list that means it hasn’t been linked across through IDM properly and therefore is fully registered. YOUR FACILITY MUST BE REGISTERED!
My Facility is registered but I cannot find it in eVitals.
- Use the wildcard search. In eVitals the wildcard is %. So to find ABC Funeral Home, INC you would want to search % ABC %, then search by ALL.
