OSCAR Pro: Create an "Ocean Connect" Provider and User in OSCAR – OceanMD

Create an Ocean-specific provider and user account in the EMR. Ocean will use these credentials to integrate with OSCAR Pro.

To allow Ocean Cloud Connect to authenticate your EMR integration and save notes into your EMR, an Ocean-specific provider and user account ("Ocean Connect") must be created.

1. Add a New "Ocean Connect" Provider

From the Administration Panel window, click "Add a Provider Record".

Fill in the following fields:
- Provider Number: (use the "Suggest" button to generate)
- Last Name: Connect
- First Name: Ocean
- Type: Doctor
- Has Schedule: Enabled
- Receives Ticklers: Enabled

Click the "Add Provider Record" button at the bottom of the window to create the provider.

2. Assign the "Ocean Connect" Provider a Primary Role

In the Administration Panel window, under "User Management," click "Assign Role to Provider."
In the user table, assign the Ocean Connect user the role of "doctor" (if it is not already set), and click "Add".
In the "Set primary role" section beneath the table, select the "Connect, Ocean" entry in the Provider dropdown and select "doctor" in the Role dropdown. Click "Set Primary Role."

3. Add a New "Ocean Connect" EMR User

In the Administration Panel window, under User Management, click "Add a Login Record."
Fill in the following fields:
- Username: OceanConnect (ensure there are no spaces)
- Password: (set a secure password for this user and store it in a safe place- e.g., with your Ocean Shared Encryption Key).
- Confirm: (retype the password above)
- Provider Number: (select “Connect, Ocean” from the dropdown menu)
- Pin(remote) Enable: Enabled
- Pin(local) Enable: Disabled
- PIN: (set a secure pin for this user and store it with your Ocean Shared Encryption Key).
- Confirm: (retype the PIN value)
- Force Password Reset: false

Click the "Add Record" button, and record your newly created credentials in your Ocean Credential Reference Card.

You will use these EMR user credentials later on in the integration.

4. OSCAR 'Pro-Auth' Users Only: Setting the Security Record Integration Credentials

OSCAR 'Pro Auth' Users Only

Note: Only perform this step if your EMR uses OSCAR Pro Authentication ("Pro Auth").

Not sure if you're using OSCAR Pro Authentication?

You can quickly determine if your EMR has the "Pro Auth" module enabled by checking your EMR login screen:
If the PIN field is not visible upon login, the "Pro Auth" module is enabled and you should complete the steps below.
If the PIN field is visible during login, the "Pro Auth" module is disabled and you can skip the steps below.

If you're still unsure whether "Pro Auth" is enabled, please contact OSCAR Pro Support.

In the Administration Panel window, under User Management, click "Set Security Record Integration Password."
- Username: (select "OceanConnect")
- Password: (enter the password for the "OceanConnect" user you created in Step 3)
- Confirm Password: (retype the password)
- Pin: (set a secure pin for this user and store it with your Ocean Shared Encryption Key.)
- Confirm Pin: (retype the pin above)

Click the blue "Update Record" button to save your changes.
