Security Rights for Merging Person and Patient Records

You can apply security rights to limit personnel access to the merging process at four levels:

• Association level, where users can merge duplicate person and patient records within practices that are in the same association.
• Enterprise level, where users can merge duplicate person and patient records within the enterprise.
• Practice level, where users can merge duplicate person and patient records within the practice they arelogged on to.
• System level, where users can merge duplicate person and patient records from within all practices within the system.

Users with enterprise-level person merge access rights can run a practice-level person merge from any of the practices within the enterprise. Users with only practice-level person merge access rights cannot run an enterprise-level person merge.
