E-Credentialing Solutions Application

E-Credentialing Solutions provides document management and personnel tracking for the Health Industry. When professionals such as Nurses, Technicians, and other staff are dispatched to work in hospitals and other facilities, they must meet a certain level of “credentialing” before they are allowed to work at a given facility.

Design Vision

ECS provides cost effective solutions that simplifies the compliance process and provide easy access to verification during audits. Another main component of e-credentialing solution is the online training and online tests that lead to some of the credentialing in the form of modules and certificates.

Information Architecture

End User

This level provides the least functionality, and consists mainly of a single page of links to documents and lists of current credentials with expiration dates.At this level one can take tests, view their test scores, and fax in their own credential documents.

Faculty Member

This level of user does not have the ability to add users, and can only view the Information and personnel that have been assigned, or “Affiliated” with their organization. Needless to say, this Level can only see “their” data.

Agency Administrators

These users will need to be able to View, Edit, Add, and activate and De-Activate personnel, fax in documents and assign “Unclaimed” documents to individuals. At this level they also have the ability to add “End-Users” and thus access to their agency data.

Administrator

The administrator has direct access to the database tables, although if this is the case in the proposed solution, then it should be a somewhat abstracted view so that data loss does not occur by accident.
