How do I make a request template not visible for the patient but with the ability to submit on behalf of patient?
Once you have created your request template, you can add it to your care navigation pathway. To make it visible to admins but not your patients you will need to 'Suspend access' by ticking the box next to the request type and then click 'Update pathway'. Once you have done this, you can go to step one in this guide to submit a request on behalf of a patient.
