To add or change a local administrator in your facility:
- For a new user or a facility with
no local administrator, the supervisor for the facility will need to
submit a help request online https://dshs.texas.gov/vs/forms/txever.aspx and provide the user
information for the new user information for the new user that will be the new local administrator for the facility.
- If the current local administrator
is leaving the facility, they can submit a help request online https://dshs.texas.gov/vs/forms/txever.aspx to request to have another user added as the local administrator
prior to their departure.
Every facility that has multiple TxEVER users will have at least one user with local administrator permissions. It is the local administrator's responsibility to
- add new users
- maintain current users
- deactivate TxEVER users that have separated from their facility
Some account management functions only the
VSS TxEVER Help Desk can do. The most common example is when a physician had an old TER account, but left their old practice and moved to your medical facility. You will be unable to "see" the user until we, at the state level, "assign" the new "location" to that user's profile.
If your facility's local administrator leaves, someone at the state level will need to assign you or another user as a local administrator. Local administrators are unable to grant other users administrator access. The
TxEVER Help Desk will only perform functions that local administrators are unable to.
