Channel Preferences/ePermissions

To ensure the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR)  and regulatory compliance are met, you must have explicit permission from a health care professional (HCP) to contact them by electronic means.

Channel Preferences are completely configurable and your organisation will have specified the information to be gathered, the contact methods offered, the email texts used and the period for which permission remains active.

All changes to Channel Preferences are tracked and recorded in an audit log.

Your view of the Channel Preference permissions is read-only. This means that you cannot make any changes to the options selected. Changes can only be made by the HCPs themselves or users with administrator rights.

Normally the request to provide permissions will be as a result of a face-to-face or telephone call with the HCP.
