Adding a New Practitioner to Bluechip

Practitioners are added to the Bluechip database via BC Secure, a user-restricted and password-protected application external to Bluechip itself.
Typically, only Practitioners or Practice Managers have access to BC Secure, due to the high permission level required.
Before running BC Secure, ensure all users are logged out of Bluechip, and it is closed on all computers.
It is recommended that you perform a backup prior to making any changes in BC Secure.
Be aware that the number of active practitioner records you can add to BC Secure is limited by your practice's Bluechip licence.
The recording and setup of new practitioner records involves a number of steps in both BC Secure and the Bluechip database. Alternatively, contact MedicalDirector Customer Service for assistance, as they are available to assist you with this.
