    • The practitioner's record still exists in BC Secure, but now it is displayed in italics to indicate that it has been deactivated.
    • The

      button has been replaced with a

      button, to indicate that the selected practitioner record can be reactivated if you desire.
    • You cannot add or reactivate rooms associated with the deactivated practitioner. You can however delete a room associated with him.

      • It is at this point you have an opportunity to undo this action by clicking the Revert button, essentially reactivating the practitioner record. Note however, that this is not the same as clicking

        itself, which requires you enter a Bluechip Authorisation number, provided by MedicalDirector.
