Greenway Telehealth™ User Management
In the Users setting in Account Settings, Greenway Telehealth™ practice administrators are able to manage users across multiple rooms. This setting allows practice administrators to add and deactivate users from a variety of roles in your practice.
An authorized user is any user that has been added as an Active User in the Users tab whether the user is a Provider or Non-provider user.
An administrator is any user that has been assigned with the Administrator role when adding or editing users. Any user can be granted the role of Administrator.
In the Users setting, practice administrators are able to:
- View all rooms users have access to.
- View all users in those rooms.
- Add, edit, and deactivate Provider and Non-provider users.
- Assign user roles, and grant and remove access to virtual waiting rooms.
- Resend user invites
The roles Front Desk, Care Coordinator, Nurse/Medical Assistant, Back Office Staff, and Other are only intended to assist in user organization. Assigning any of these roles to a user does not grant permissions or have an affect on a user's permissions.
How to Get Here

After selecting Account Settings, the Users, Practice Setup, and Licenses settings will not display if a user does not have administrator permissions.
Add a New Provider User
