  • Scroll down to Associated Support Coordinators
  • Click Add Support Coordinator
  • Enter the Support Coordinator's email address and click the search icon.

  • If there is already an account associated with this email address, the details will display.

  • Select the permissions that apply to this participant - Claim Approver and/or Receive Plan Report.

Please note that you will not be able to make changes to the Support Coordinator's Email, Name, or Mobile number. However, the Support Coordinator can update their own contact details by selecting 'Update Profile' from their name when they are logged in.
