Confidentiality codes can be used to restrict access to specific patients, charts, or documents. The Allow Confidentiality Code Override Access privilege allows users of OnBase Patient Window to access these highly confidential records in emergency situations.
In OnBase Patient Window, users who have this privilege are given the option to access content protected by confidentiality codes. When a user exercises this option for a specific patient record, the user gains immediate access to content within that patient record that is protected by confidentiality codes, regardless of whether the user has rights to the confidentiality codes in effect.
To change the duration of confidentiality code override access, configure the Emergency Access Duration (Hours) setting as described under Configuring Emergency Access Privileges. The default duration is 24 hours.
To require users to specify why they are requesting override access, see Patient Window Settings.
For more information about confidentiality codes, see Confidentiality Codes.
