IMPORTANCE OF AVIMARK USERS AND SECURITY

The security feature is designed in such a way as to not affect the use of AVImark, except when a user attempts to do something that they are not authorized to do. This fact makes the security feature transparent to the user. The only extra action required by the user is that they “sign on” when they first start AVImark. If you choose not to make use of the new security feature at all in your hospital, just don't do anything (other than enter your list of doctors and other staff), and the security feature will be completely invisible to you. Likewise, you can choose to protect just a few functions in AVImark and those functions that you have not protected will be automatically available to everyone. There are many functions in the AVImark system that you can control the use of. For example, you will be able to allow certain users to look at information on the CID, but not be allowed to change, add, or delete any account information once the invoice has been printed. You will be able to control who is allowed to make appointments, use hospital scheduling, enter payments and print invoices, change the reminder setup, and the list goes on and on. In fact, as we receive feedback about the security feature, we will be able to allow you to control almost any function that AVImark provides.

THREE THINGS THAT FIXING USERS AND SECURITY, AUDIT TRAIL, AND TIME CLOCK WILL HELP:

1. Intentional bad behavior (money related) within the system by associate doctors, management and employees

2. Unintentional mistakes (money related) within the system by owners, associate doctors, management and employees

3. Unintentional mistakes or mis-steps within the system that SCREWS UP YOUR AVIMARK SYSTEM.

I have seen dozens and dozens of hospitals over the past 20yrs. that have lost tens of thousands of dollars because improper Users and Security, Audit Trail and Time Clock Setup. Also thousands of dollars lost and staff hours lost fixing things that owners and staff should have never been allowed into or to change. Getting your AVImark running correctly costs money, and not fixing it costs more.
