Version 5.3

Release notes for V5.3.

Qualifiers

A new button on the qualifier window of a clinical item allows you to view all previous values of that qualifer and see them in a chart.

Investigations

  • When a clinical record has unreviewed pathology results a label on the summary page alerts the user to this. Clicking the label takes you to the unreviewed results.
  • Requests and results can be logically deleted from a patient's clinical record. To undelete a result you can go to the Review Results window and select the result using the Deleted filter.
  • If an investigation result is returned from the pathology lab with an unrecognised reference number Communicare will show all unmatched requests.

Rural Prescription

  • You can now reprint a rural prescription by right-clicking on a regular medication on the summary tab and selecting Reprint Rural Prescription. There is also a tickbox for the mode of dispensing to be indicated on the printed form and the patient ID is now shown too.
  • When a new regular medication has been added or the details, such as dosage, have changed for an existing regular medication then this is indicated on the rural prescription form. Also, the reason for the prescription is indicated if a condition has been selected.

HIC Online

  • If a Medicare claim has been submitted then the Medicare claim window is not shown every time a provider returns to that service.
  • Health Care Card details are now displayed in the Medicare claim window.
  • Patients deceased for more than 6 months do not now appear on the Bulk Bill Status form.

Prescribing

A provider with no prescriber number will be prevented from recording a new medication which requires an authority.
