Providers getting administration power

kbrauch wrote on Saturday, February 17, 2007:

After creating a couple of providers when I logon as that provider the ‘Administration’ tab appears on the first page.  And, the system shows all provider’s appointments.  I am probably missing the method that would default to the user’s appointments and would not give that user administration rights. I am using V2.8.2.

Thanks,

To control whether ot not a provider has administration privileges you will need to install phpGACL and create a group for your providers that do not allow this privileges.  I have not audited this closely but what I did was create an access request object called administrators.  This group can do everything.

I thing created a group called "physicians" and left out privileges:

Administration

   1. Batch Communication Tool
   2. Calendar Settings
   3. Database Reporting
   4. Forms Administration
   5. Language Interface Tool
   6. Practice Settings
   7. Superbill Codes Administration
   8. Users/Groups/Logs Administration

ARO: Physicians have the following privileges:

    *  Accounting
         1. Financial Reporting - my encounters
    * Encounters
         1. Authorize - any encounters
         2. Coding - any encounters (write,wsome optional)
         3. Fix encounter dates - any encounters
         4. Notes - any encounters (write,addonly optional)
    * Patients
         1. Appointments (write optional)
         2. Demographics (write,addonly optional)
         3. Documents (write,addonly optional)
         4. Medical/History (write,addonly optional)
         5. Patient Notes (write,addonly optional)
         6. Transactions (write optional)

Return Value: write
