2024/03/18 - Release Notes epi-me (eAdmissions interface only release) - HEALTHSCOPE & ACHA ONLY

NEW FEATURES:

INTERFACE CHANGES

HEALTHSCOPE & ACHA ONLY - vAdmissionFormExtract - change PatientSurveyPASCode to boolean instead of binary, and reverse its mapping - (Helpdesk #33049, EM-7005)

The patient's opt-out to receiving a survey is recorded differently on Healthscope & ACHA's webPAS (opt-in) compared to eAdmissions (opt-out).

As such, the population of the PatientSurveyPASCode into the vAdmissionFormExtract needs to be changed and reversed as follows:
  • If Patient User ticks ' I DO NOT wish to receive a patient satisfaction survey via email'. populate <PatientSurveyPASCode> as N (currently mapping as '1')
  • If not ticked, populate as Y (currently mapping as '0')

HEALTHSCOPE & ACHA ONLY - vAdmissionFormExtract - change HealthFundCoverCode to populate as empty, unless Claim Type is Private Health Fund - (Helpdesk #33619, EM-6888)


webPAS has a structured field for Health Fund Table / Level whereas eAdmissions captures it as free-text. Healthscope & ACHA would like eAdmissions to 'hardcode' all private health fund patients as having Top health fund coverage (which they will then change based on the online eligibility check), and no coverage for all other claim types. That is, in the vAdmissionFormExtract:

  • If Claim Type = Private Health Fund, continue to populate HealthFundCoverCode with 'T'
  • If Claim Type /= Private Health Fund, populate it with no data / empty i.e <HealthFundCoverCode></HealthFundCoverCode>
