Ocean Server Upgrade October 7th, 2021 Release Notes – OceanMD

The Ocean Server upgrade scheduled for October 7th, 2021 at 9:30 PM EST contains the following improvements and fixes.

eServices

For eConsult messages, the Messaging pane's "To:" dropdown list will now update to only show the Referrer to ensure the eConsult response is directed appropriately.
Added a new setting to the Admin > Integrations > Register a Referral Integration page that allows API integrated sites to disable the ability for Referral Senders to include attachments with the initial referral.
The Open eReferral APIs and FHIR eReferral APIs now support sending automatically split referrals as distinct 'child' referrals to the downstream system.
Added an Wait Time Type extension to the HL7 FHIR eReferral APIs.
Added the Ocean directory listing external service id as a FHIR PractitionerRole identifier sent in the eReferral bundle.
The outcome of outbound API calls (success/failure) will now be accessible in the Referral record's Action > View Event Log of each referral.
Ocean will now send an email notification to the site admin if an outbound webhook notification fails.

The "Health Information Custodian" selection on the Referrals Configuration page will now be validated for new Ocean sites, when the page is first saved.
The eReferral time will now remain empty if it is left blank when saving a booking date (rather than defaulting to 12:00am).
EMR appointments passed from Accuro onto the referral’s scheduling pane will no longer be subject to the browser’s timezone.

Moved the Appointment Suggestion/Template setting from the schedule setting to the schedule configuration level for Accuro and Med Access EMR modules. This will enable users to specify different appointment suggestion/template slots for alternate schedule configurations.

Emails sent from the default Ocean email address will now add "Ocean by CognisantMD" to the "From" email address unless the site admin has set a site specific 'friendly name' to display. This is a best practice for improving email deliverability. (The default Ocean email address (no-reply@cognisantmd.com) is unchanged.
