# Network Participations

Network participation record providers who participate in a network. Putting together a network participation for a provider is a step in onboarding that provider into your health organization’s network.

Network participations have these key components.

- The participating provider
- The network that the provider is participating in
- The location of the practice that’s covered by the network
- The contract that binds the provider, network, and location together
- The period the network participation is active for.

Both individual practitioners and provider groups can be participants in network participations.

- **[Network Participation in Health Cloud](https://help.salesforce.com/s/articleView?id=ind.eu_pnm_np_comp.htm&release=264.0.0&type=5)**  
    The Network Participation Lightning component helps you view and register network participations for the providers you onboard. Records created with this component are stored on the Healthcare Facility Network object. If a contract is specified for the network participation, then an additional record is created on the Provider Network Contract object as well.

    To register network participations for a provider, use the Network Participation component on the provider’s business account or person account record page.
