About Vet Radar approvals
Vet Radar has an approvals feature. The approvals feature enables a staff member with the applicable approval role to give approval for changes to a patient’s treatment plan. For example, if a university wants a veterinarian to do a check of the treatment plan that a student makes, they can use the approval feature.
Before you can use the approvals feature, a practice manager must configure the approval
role of Vet Radar user accounts. Vet Radar has three approval roles:
- Needs approval
- Can approve
- Not applicable
After a practice manager configures a user account with the Needs
approval approval role, Vet Radar identifies
changes that they make to the patient sheet. For example, if the staff member adds a
treatment to the patient sheet, Vet Radar shows a purple
color:
A staff member with the Can approve approval role must give
approval for all changes to the patient sheet. Staff cannot change the treatment task
before a staff member with the Can approve approval role gives
approval. For example, staff cannot:
- Start a treatment task that a staff member did not give approval for
- Ignore a treatment task that a staff member did not give approval for
- Complete a treatment task that a staff member did not give approval for
The patient card shows a purple circle to identify that you must give approval to a
treatment of a patient sheet:
Tip: You can use a filter to show patient
sheets that have changes that you must give approval for.
