A provider or provider group may have people working for them, or associated with them. For example, a hospital can have medical and nursing staff to deliver medical services, and a legal consultant to deal with legal affairs. Since these people are associated with the provider's business, the organization needs to record information about them. In some cases, the organization may need to contact them for specific reasons, for example a provider's attorney may be the contact for a services contract. CPM provides the ability to record and modify a provider's relationships with its staff, along with any additional information about them.
