Indicate whether this user is permitted to view recall reasons. If you are using Clinical, and a visiting patient has any due Recalls, you will be prompted of such when adding them to the Waiting Room, or scheduling an appointment for them.. You can then indicate which Recall(s) the patient is attending for.

Click Save to confirm your selections. The Set-up Password window appears.

 

Enter and confirm a password for this user. Passwords must contain a minimum of 6 characters.

Click Save to confirm your password choice.

You will now be prompted to setup the Practitioner Details for this Specialist. If you choose not to do this now, you can later via the Registered Practitioners window. Note that until a practitioner has been activated and is visible in the Registered Practitioners window, they cannot perform functions in Pracsoft.

 

Tick the Referral Required check box to enable the recording of referral details when billing. You may also wish to indicate default items numbers 104 / 105 for the Specialist.
