  • To manage access effectively in Healthcare Operations Core (HCO), first understand how roles and responsibilities work together. These concepts build on the Service Model Foundation (SMF) but are adapted for HCO-specific use cases.

    Roles

    Roles define table-level access. They determine which objects you can interact with and what actions you can perform. IE, (CRUD: Create, Read, Update, Delete).

    Example: The sn_hco.care_team_member role enables you to work with HCO cases.

    Responsibilities

    Responsibilities control record-level access within tables. Even if your role grants access to a table, responsibilities decide which specific records you can view or edit.

    Responsibilities in HCO are based on Service Model Foundation responsibilities, but adapted (relabeled) for healthcare operations using Related Party Configurations.

    Example: The Care Team Member responsibility limits your access to cases for healthcare organizations that you’re a member of.

    Healthcare Operations Core Responsibility Inherited Service Model Foundation responsibility
    Care Team Member Service location business contributor
    Care Team Manager Service location business manager
    Support Department Agent Location Support Agent

    Why responsibilities matter

    Think of roles as the door to the building and responsibilities as the rooms you’re allowed to enter.

    This layered approach segregates data so that members of healthcare organizations only see records that pertain to that healthcare organization that they have responsibility for.

    Example scenario

    You’re a care team member associated with the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) at a hospital.
    • Role: The sn_hco.care_team_member role gives you access to HCO cases.
    • Responsibility: The Care Team Member responsibility restricts access to cases within that ICU only.

    Result: You can work on HCO cases related to that ICU, but can’t view cases for other units.

    sn_hco.loc_support_agent Support Department Agent The Support Department Agent responsibility is used by the Care Team Operations applications so agents can fulfill cases for their specific department.
