## **User Roles**

- Clinical user
  - Enrolling clinician
  - Reviewing clinician
  - Observing clinician
- Participant (patient/member)
- Administrative user
- Support user

### **Clinical User**

The clinical user, typically a nurse, physician, or care manger, is the clinical end user of the application. There are three sub-roles of clinical users:

1. **Enrolling Clinician:** the clinician who enrolls the participant into a remote monitoring program.
2. **Reviewing Clinician:** the primary clinician assigned to the participant; the enrolling clinician automatically takes on the reviewing clinician role upon enrolling the participant, and will always assume the required notifications (events/actions) for the participant. Another clinician can take over the reviewing clinician role for the participant from the clinician dashboard.
3. **Observing Clinician:** any clinician who optionally subscribes to a notification (event/action) for a participant, where they are not the reviewing clinician for that participant.

### **Participant**

The participant, or patient or member (as they may be referred to in your organization), is the user who is enrolled into the remote monitoring program by a clinical user.

### **Administrative User**

The administrative user, or admin, has access to the Impact Admin portal to create and edit RPM programs. 

### **Support User**

The support user has access to the Impact Support portal to view enrollment and program status for all participants across your organization.
