Upon signup, a provider web user is automatically created as a shell. The provider shell includes the license type and product module(s) according to the contract for System Administrators to create the provider's user.
Before completing the shell, be sure to have the provider's full name, their National Provider Identifier (NPI), valid email address, and valid phone number on hand. Once created, the system will automatically send an email to the provider with their username and login instructions. Upon the first log in, new users are prompted to create a new password.
System Administrators can also claim a provider shell using an existing non-provider user if applicable. This merges the two users and populates the provider shell with the details of the non-provider user.
Important Note: System Administrators must complete all provider shells before they can add additional providers to the practice. The option to create a new provider user is disabled until all provider user shells are completed.
