`clsClaimSearchApi` is the API-facing wrapper for claim-submission searches, pairing `ClaimSearchCriteria` input with `ClaimSearchResultCollection` output.*

- Exposes the criteria and result-collection members needed by callers integrating with the search API.

## Context
- Namespace: `SAIF.Business.Claim.Entry`
- Assembly/package: `SAIF.Business.Claim.Entry`

## Public members
| Member | Signature | Purpose |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `ClaimSearchResultCollection` | `Public Property ClaimSearchResultCollection As Online801.Search.clsClaimSearchResultCollection` | Gets or sets claim search result collection. |
| `GetResults` | `Public Shared Function GetResults(ByVal dpi As IDataPortalInfo, ByVal claimSearchCriteria As Online801.Search.clsClaimSearchCriteria) As clsClaimSearchApi` | Retrieves the `GetResults` operation. |
| `ClaimSearchCriteria` | `Public Property ClaimSearchCriteria As Online801.Search.clsClaimSearchCriteria` | Gets or sets claim search criteria. |
