Person Picture Module
The Person Picture module subgroup in the System Administrator application enable users to add, update, and print the picture of a person or patient for a chart. This permission does not affect insurance cards.
A user who has no security at all to Person Picture:
- Cannot see the person picture in the Person/Patient Information window or on the PM Chart.
- Cannot open the Scanning Device Input window to scan an image.
A user who has at least one of the securities:
- Can at least see the image on Person/Patient Maint or the NextGen® Enterprise PM Chart. The user must be able to see the picture to be able to access the other options allowed by the permissions.
- Has access to the Scanning Device Input window. Most of the security is tied to this window.
A user who has both Add and Update security:
- Can scan or paste new images for a person or patient with no current image.
- Can scan or paste new images to a person or patient that has an existing image and can alter the existing image.
If a user has Add security but not Update security:
- The user can scan a new picture or paste a picture for a person or patient that has no current image.
- If a person or patient has an existing image, the user cannot scan or paste a new image to replace the existing image and cannot alter the image.
If a user has Update security but not Add security:
- The user cannot scan a new picture for a person or patient who has no current image.
- If the person or patient has an existing image, then the user cannot scan or paste a new image to replace the existing image. The user can alter the existing image, for example, by cropping or rotating.
The Print security controls whether the users can print the picture from the Selected Segment section of the Scanning Device Input window.
The Person Picture module is used in NextGen® Enterprise PM.
