You specify whether a user is a physician at the time the user profile is created. Users whose type is
Physician have additional fields in their profile for information such as specialty type and
sub-specialty; otherwise, the types are identical. You can change the type of a user at any time.
To change the type of a user:
-
Locate the user whose profile you want to edit. See How to Find a User.
-
To the right of the user's name, click the View link.
The profile for that user is displayed.
-
In the Convert to field at the bottom of the profile, do either of the following:
-
To indicate that the user is a non-physician staff member, click Non-Physician Staff.
-
To indicate that the user is a physician, click Physician.
The user account is converted to the new type.
