The Ocean release scheduled for August 2nd at 9:30 includes the following improvements.
Secure Messaging:
- New feature: patients can quickly respond to secure messages if the sending clinician checks a box to allow quick responses (in addition to the existing functionality to present questionnaires)
- Fixed a few issues with secure messaging with attachments: allowing anonymous EMR users to send attachments, fixing a redirect to the login page after patient downloads
- Fix to overdue Ocean Online message notifications to clear due date when the forms/messages are complete
- Patients are now warned before leaving the secure message display if they try to close the browser & there are more forms to complete
- Changed notification option checkboxes in secure message send dialog to be disabled instead of hidden for anonymous EMR users
Other:
- New feature: Accuro clients can now upload batch files of patients (cohorts) via the new Accuro file uploader and have responses (& message receipts) go directly into the chart. This will be mostly useful for preventative care (e.g. pap, mammo, tetanus, etc.)
- Added a "test mode" for Ocean Form Reminders that sends all reminders to a test email address (for real appointments)
- Added a new utility script method to parse dates in the immunization record for a patient (required for tetanus shot reminder rules, for instance)
- Fixed Admin->Users screen to handle users with dots in their username (regression bug from previous release)
- Fix to trigger download of restored notes
- Fix to bug that prevented site admin permissions from being added to a user
- Tablet minimum version is now v111; older tablet versions will be prompted to upgrade automatically
- Clinics can now optionally send automatic "accepted" notifications to patients when their eRequest is accepted by staff
