About Appointment Save Restrictions

You may need to prevent certain patients from having appointments based on various reasons regarding insurance payor or provider credential level. The Appointment Save Restrictions feature will let you set rules for when a user should be prevented from creating an appointment for a particular patient. For example, you may want to keep certain staff members from making an appointment if the patient has insurance that won't pay for a specific type of program.

Note: For Disallowed Services, ClinicTracker will only check for the Primary Service selected on the appointment record.
