# Configuring a program for Patient Support Services

Enable your patients to enroll to a program in the Patient Support Services application.

**Important:**

Starting with the Yokohama release, Patient Support Services is being prepared for future deprecation. It will be hidden and no longer activated on new instances but will continue to be supported.

For details, see the [Deprecation Process \[KB0867184\]](https://support.servicenow.com/kb_view.do?sysparm_article=KB0867184) article in the Now Support knowledge base.

The Patient Support Services application uses the programs and program services available in the Healthcare and Life Sciences Service Management Core application. As a user with the sn.hcls\_manager role, you can create programs and program services tailored to a Patient Support Services program. By default, the application includes default programs and program services that you can use as a reference while creating a program and program service. For more information, see [Configure a program service](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/healthcare-life-sciences/healthcare-and-life-sciences-service-management-core/hcls-create-program-service.md) and [Configure a program](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/australia/markdown/australia/healthcare-life-sciences/healthcare-and-life-sciences-service-management-core/hcls-create-program.md).
