Auth Security Settings

Overview

The ability to Delete an authorization is a standalone security right but Add/Edit are combined. Enabling "Limited Edit" security rights does not allow access to any auth (via Edit button) or the Auth Review screen when Add/Edit is set to No.

What's New

Auth Add/Edit security rights have been decoupled so they are each stand-alone settings, along with Delete. This setting insures that every appointment has an associated authorization record and every authorization is associated with an appointment so that there are no delays sending claims

• Staff may Edit authorizations but cannot add new ones.

• When an authorization record is created for every appointment and there is no need to manually add auths.

• Users cannot inadvertently click Add instead of Edit after selecting an auth record.
