Since the upgrade in out TEST environment here are a few things we have noticed. Still have a few questions that are hopefully answered in the release notes. Please note we are ONLY USING THE .EXE VERSION
* You no longer need to use “/” in DOB for patient lookup!!!
*Allergies are no longer separated by Structured and Non-Structured. You now have Rx Lookup or Add (Add gives you the non-structured drop down list)
*Hospitalizations now show on the ICW
*An ICD/Assessment code can now be associated when documenting the Imm/Ther Inj.
*CDSS seems laid out better. There are options to satisfy the alerts straight from the CDSS window. For example if a patient needs a PHQ2 done to satisfy the Depression screening you can click on a symbol and the PHQ2 smart form appears. When you save the form you are brought back to the CDSS window.
*Red ! seem to be all over the place. In the notes and on the ICW. Still trying to understand these.
*In Flowsheets there in a new option for “New Flowsheet Encounter”. I haven’t played much with this yet.
*Turned on the “showunlockenc” itemkey and LOVE LOVE LOVE it!!! Providers can click a box on their office visits screen, select a date range and view all of their unlocked encounters!!! No clicking through each day!
*When comparing the My Settings there is now an “I” for Immunotherapy Queue under the Views tab. No clue what this is for yet.
*We are still testing the Registration Rule Dashboard. As of right now we have not found a way to satisfy this warning. Any help would be appreciated.
* In Document Management there is now a “Service Date” box under the Scanned Date. Curious as to what implication this has. Does it do anything? Does it affect Medical Records request searches?
*When going to Info> Misc Info> Nickname This now shows in the Progress Note Dashboard by the patient’s name!
So far those are some of the findings we have seen. If you have any further info on any of these areas please feel free to post!!
On to MORE testing 
and praying the release notes come out soon!!!!!!!!!!!
