Create Clinician Accounts
Why Do You Need to Create Clinician Accounts?
On the Create New Clinician page, you can add a clinician to the On-Call Scheduling™ application so that the clinician can be assigned to shifts on the schedule. Add clinicians to the On-Call Scheduling™ application so that you can create shifts for them. The clinicians' names appear:
- In the Clinician list in the Create Shift page.
- On the calendar, on the shifts that they are assigned.
- On the Currently On Call page.
Who Can Create a Clinician Account?
The administrator of your TeleTracking IQ® platform assigns people who are responsible for schedules to the role of Service Line Owner. If you have been assigned the Service Line Owner role, you can create clinician accounts. A service line owner can create a clinician account for any service line. For example, if you are a service line owner for Cardiology, you can create Cardiology clinician accounts, and you can also create clinician accounts for other service lines, such as Obstetrics.
