Supervising Prescribers

How to Setup Supervising Users (Admins only can set supervisor permissions)

Depending on the prescriber type, many States, but not all, require a supervisor to be on prescriptions ordered by a Nurse Practitioner, APRN, Physician Assistant, etc.  In States that require a supervisor, a user must be added to ScriptSure and then set to a security level of SUPERVISOR in their user profile. 

NOTES: 

• A PHYSICIAN USER AND A SUPPORTING USER CAN BE SET AS A SUPERVISOR!  
• You can have multiple supervisors on one practice.  
• If you simply want to add a supervisor to select when prescribing, add the user as a SUPPORTING USER (no additional charge for this user type).
• If you have a supervisor who will be prescribing for themselves AND wants to be a supervisor for other prescribers on the account, that user needs to be added as PHYSICIAN USER (fees apply for any added physician users).

The following steps assume the user has already been created/added to ScriptSure. Thereafter a user can be SET as a supervisor and  medical credentials added.

STEPS:

• 1. Access Settings:

  • Click on your name located in the top-right corner of the screen. Then, select "SETTINGS" from the dropdown menu.
  • 
  • 
    

• 2. Navigate to Manage Users & Practices:

  • Within the "Select the Practice" window, find the practice where the user is and click on "View" located on the right-hand side.
  • 
  • 
    

• 3. Edit User Details:

  • In the "Practice User List," page locate the user. Click on the "VIEW" option corresponding to the user's row.

6. In the "USER INFORMATION" window, the "SUPERVISOR" button will be under "User Permissions". Both a A PHYSICIAN USER and a SUPPORTING USER can be set as a SUPERVISOR.

Be sure to add the SUPERVISOR's credentials to their profile and click SAVE.

How to SELECT a SETUP Supervisor and ADD to Prescriptions

AFTER a supervisor has been setup, any other prescriber can utilize the CURRENT Supervisor setting. The following show the steps to select (add) a supervisor's name and licenses to a prescription order.

2. From the Prescription Preview, click "Current Supervisor". Then, select the appropriate supervisor.
