Version 13.4

The MeHR and PCEHR modules can be turned on simultaneously. If they are, in the Clinical Record the toolbar buttons relevant to both modules will be available, and on closing the Clinical Record there will be checkboxes for sending both MeHR and PCEHR documents. On the MeHR Medical Event Summary and Current Health Profile documents a Dual Send Flag will be included with the PCEHR Document ID of the corresponding PCEHR document for that encounter, if one exists.

MeHR’s security model does not support Communicare’s Viewing Rights. Granting access to MeHR to users with limited Viewing Rights may result in those users seeing restricted information in the MeHR. Furthermore, CHP’s generated by users with limited Viewing Rights may result in restricted information being inadvertently posted to the MeHR. Communicare recommends that users who access the MeHR should have full Viewing Rights.

A button to view/edit admin notes for claims has been added in the Service Record - Medicare Tab. This is accessible by clicking the button with the green notepad icon available on this tab.

Provider name has been added to MBS Items Claims History, right of the Payment Status column; Payment Status and Provider columns can be sorted.

There are no longer any date constraints on recording a patient's clinical information with clinical items. You can now record clinical items outside a patient's lifetime period.

Changes made to how Communicare interacts with the Human Services Directory (HSD) through Argus have allowed us to identify more addresses that can be sent to securely. The Address Book Search form allows searching of the HSD and the addition of HSD addresses to the Communicare address book. Once these addresses have been added the Secure Message Delivery icon will be displayed alongside them if they have been identified as secure. See the help topics for Address Book Search and Secure Message Delivery for more details.

Changes have been made to allow a user to create either a Clinical Document Architecture (CDA) compliant Discharge Summary, or a Rich Text Format (RTF) format Discharge Summary. See Discharge Summaries.
