Confirmation
When you complete the registration process, you will receive a confirmation by email which includes the Code Number(s) and program description(s) for each program registered for the Match.
You should provide the Code Number(s) to each of your applicants as the Code Number(s) uniquely identify your program(s) in the Match. This is particularly relevant for residency sites that are offering more than one program in the Match.
Updating Your Residency Site and Program Information
Once your residency site is registered, you can log in to the NMS Match System to update your residency site or program information. This includes modifying the number of positions offered by a program in the Match, adding an additional program to your residency site, withdrawing a program from the Match if you no longer intend to offer any positions in the program, or modifying your contact information.
