Staff member accounts have the following capabilities, which can be customized based on practice needs:
- Full access to DrChrono
- Scheduling, charting, patient information, settings, profiles, and reporting
- Signing or locking clinical notes and submitting electronic prescriptions. Staff members perform these tasks on behalf of the provider to which they are assigned. Staff members cannot sign or lock clinical notes or e-prescribe using their names.
- Billing information, access to all business intelligence tools, and submitting claims
To create staff member accounts, you must have the Manage Accounts permissions turned on in Permissions Administration (Account > Staff Permissions > Permissions tab).
