There are three roles on the ReferAll system:

Scheme Admin v Super Scheme Admin permissions:


A Super Scheme Admin account has two additional permissions compared to a Scheme Admin role:

  • Access to managing users: includes extending passwords and removing users
  • Deletion of referrals
  • Marking a patient as deceased

Each Scheme Admin role is configurable upon request by a team member in a managerial role.

The Additional Icon that a Super Scheme Admin will find themselves with is the 'Users' icon, which will allow the 'SSA', to manage users, view their last login date and contact details, and de-activate their accounts. 

If you require a member/s of your team to have additional or removal of a permission, for example disable access to Reports, please make a request via our usual support channels.
