Prime Users

Defined: Prime Users are those organizations who are authorized to request issuance of a MINC number. They include all 12 medical licensing authorities, as well as the Medical Council of Canada (MCC). 

Responsibilities: Prime Users’ responsibilities include: 

1)    as part of their registration process, gather from their applicants the core information required by the MINC hub

2)    assure the veracity, accuracy and completeness of information which they submit to the hub when requesting issuance of a new MINC number.

3)    when a MINC number is generated as a result of their submission, Prime Users would provide documentation of that number to the individual. This would be done via a form letter providing an explanation of the nature of the unique number and how it will be used, as well as a document which verifies that the MINC number has been issued to the individual. This document would include all core information which was provided to the MINC hub.

4)    providing the ongoing point of communication with their registered practitioners about MINC issues. 

Discussion: Prime Users will each be provided with the operation manual for the MINC system, a sign-on and password for the MINC hub, and access to MINC#NIMC staff to assist with MINC problems and questions. They will be able to request MINC numbers for all currently-registered members via e-mail; a secure Internet-based access will be available for both batch and single submissions. Prime Users will be the primary information source for MINC issues concerning physicians within their jurisdictions.
