System Updates & New Features:
Printing patient letters with multiple CC’ doctors:
When printing a patient letter that contained multiple cc’ doctors, the system would generate multiple copies of the letter (one for each CC’) within the single pdf document. This has now been changed so that only one copy of the letter will generate within the pdf printout.
New Billing Report: All Billed Items by Patient
This new billing report has been based on the existing ‘All Billed Items by Service Date’ report, but instead of being formatted with sub-headers for each Doctor and the billed Service Item, the new report includes sub-headers for each individual patient record with the service items they have claimed for over the given time period. Each patient sub-header will include Patient Full Name and EpiSoft ID number.
Letter Writing Module – Two new Data elements available
We have added two new data elements which can be used when sending patient letters which are, ‘Selected Visit Clinician Full Name' & 'Selected Visit Clinician Provider Number'. These can now be added to your existing letter templates, making it easier to populate the correct doctor detail who is associated with the selected visit.
Billing Module
There is a new service code type called Miscellaneous Coded Case Payment. This is for some newer contracts where the fund is expecting a single value benefit, populated with a miscellaneous code and the extract will flag this type of claim with an "M". If you have a contract of this type, add service under this type, add service code which should come from valid Health fund Misc codes and apply to relevant contract. When assigning to patient you should be able to submit with this single hospital service which will then extract as a case payment or Single Value Benefit.
Bug Fixes:
Printing HTML only Test Results:
When trying to print HTML only test results, users were presented with a blank pdf document. This issue has now been resolved, and HTML only test results can now be printed as expected.
Discharge Details Form – Destination Hospital disappearing:
A unique scenario was reported where the Destination Hospital recorded on the Discharge Details visit form had disappeared after saving the form. This issue has now been resolved.
Billing Report - All Billed Items by Service Date:
When exporting the All Billed Items by Service Date report to excel, columns that included a $ value were exported with a trailing ‘space’ following the amount, causing issues using Excel functions. This issue has now been resolved.
