Configure organization roles and permissions

The Organization Role Config screen is where you control what each role can see and do across your Medipyxis organization.

Before you start

Open the screen

Navigate to /administrator → Organization Role Config (/administrator/org-role-config). The /administrator cockpit link appears in the sidebar for admin roles, outside the facility-scoped navigation.

Organization Role Config matrix showing rows of seeded roles (admin, clinician, biller, etc.) and columns of feature permissions with checkboxes. The Organization Role Config matrix. Rows are roles; columns are features. A checked box means the role has access to that feature.

Seeded roles

Medipyxis ships ten built-in roles. They cover the most common job functions and cannot be deleted, but their permissions can be adjusted.

Role Primary function
admin Full organization access; manages all facilities and users
clinical_manager Oversees clinical staff; access to Fleet Calendar, Visit Wizard, Oversight Cockpit
medical_director Clinical sign-off; access to LCD Navigator™ audit and reporting
clinician Visit documentation; access to Visit Wizard, patient records, orders
referral_coordinator Manages Referral Intake kanban and Fax Review Queue
bd_rep Business Development; CRM, BD Dashboard, limited patient view
bd_manager BD rep management; CRM, BD Dashboard, Oversight Cockpit BD metrics
finance_ap Accounts Payable; Billing (read), Inventory Accounts Payable
vendor_coordinator Vendor-facing inventory management; Product Catalog and inventory
biller Billing access; Claims, Denials, Payments, and the facility Charge Master

Platform-level roles superadmin and customersupport (Medipyxis-internal) sit above these organization roles and are not configured here.

Feature permission matrix

The matrix uses checkboxes at the intersection of each role and feature. A checked box means the role can access that feature.

Feature Typical roles with access
Dashboard All roles
Referral Intake referral_coordinator, clinician, clinical_manager, admin
Patient Management clinician, clinical_manager, medical_director, admin
Visit Wizard / EHR clinician, clinical_manager, medical_director
Fleet Calendar clinician, clinical_manager, admin
Inventory vendor_coordinator, finance_ap, clinical_manager, admin
Orders & DME clinician, clinical_manager
Billing biller, finance_ap, admin
CRM bd_rep, bd_manager, admin
Business Development bd_rep, bd_manager, admin
Oversight Cockpit clinical_manager, medical_director, bd_manager, admin
HR & Compliance admin, clinical_manager

Team Chat All roles

This matrix shows typical defaults. Your organization may have customized these — always verify the live checkboxes in Organization Role Config rather than relying on the table above.

Set a permission

  1. Open Organization Role Config and select the organization from the dropdown at the top.
  2. Find the role row and feature column you want to change.
  3. Check or uncheck the box.
  4. Click Save. A confirmation toast appears; the change applies to affected users on their next page load.

Removing a feature from a role hides that sidebar link for every user with that role on their next load. Communicate permission changes to affected staff in advance.

Billing roles are facility-scoped

Billing roles (biller and related) are scoped to a specific facility — they cannot hold a global (all-facility) wildcard. Assign the billing role at the facility where the user works. The biller role can view and edit that facility's Charge Master; creating and editing claim codes and claim status remains governed by the same role configuration.

Worked example

Scenario: give referral_coordinator visibility into Billing so coordinators can see claim status without creating or editing claims.

  1. Open Organization Role Config and select the organization.
  2. Find the referral_coordinator row and the Billing column and check the box.
  3. Click Save.
  4. Notify affected users that the Billing link is now visible in their sidebar. If you need finer-grained (read-only) billing access than the feature toggle provides, contact Medipyxis support.
