Practice Software Prerequisites
If your practice is running Best Practice software and is updated to Jade with October 2019 Data Update or newer, then you will need to configure Third Party Access to allow Primary Sense to access the database.
You can configure this by selecting Setup within Best Practice, then selecting Configuration and then Database.
Click the Setup third-party integrations button and then scroll down the list of third-party providers and tick Primary Care Gold Coast.
Click Save, then Save again.
Click Here for full instructions on how to enable Third Party Access for Primary Sense
If your practice is running Medical Director, you will need to download the SQL script below. This script will set up a read only user account which will be used when configuring Primary Sense Services.
Replace the <insert password here> text with a secure random password.
Run the script on your Medical Director SQL Database using Microsoft SQL Management Studio.
If you previously have run the Create User Script and have recently updated Medical Director to a new version, the user may have lost access to the database. Run the following script to fix the user permissions.
