New Products & Features

Mobile Updates
We have made several updates to the mobile app, including:

• Added the Recurring Appointments feature to the Schedule
• Added the Appointment History feature
• Supported restricted columns set up in PM
• Added ability to remove facility when creating or editing an appointment
• Added two new prescription icons to the iPhone mobile app
• Updated unit codes for prescriptions sent electronically
• Updated the Chart Number field to accept up to 12 alphanumeric characters

Default Report Categories
We have organized the AdvancedInsight default reports into categories to help you easily find the reports you need. The number of default reports available is steadily increasing, and this method of organization will streamline this continued expansion.

Exclusions Information – Patient and Carrier Buttons
We have added Patient and Carrier buttons on the Exclusions Information screen so you
can access patient information and the Carriers master file directly from the Exclusions

Information screen to resolve the exclusion error.

• Patient button – Opens the Patient Information tab for the associated patient
• Carrier button – Opens the Carriers master file for the associated patient

Submitter Type – Test Mode Indicator
We have enhanced the Claims Submission Wizard so that when a claim is marked to run in
test mode in the Submitter Types master file the system displays [TEST MODE] in the
Claims Submission Wizard next to the selected submitter type.

Previously, no visual indicator was displayed if a submitter type was set to Test in the
Submitter Types master file.

Report Center Menu Updates
We have color coded the report sections in the Report Center to correlate with the colors of
the corresponding PM toolbar content areas.

PM Toolbar Content Areas:

• Blue – Demographics
• Red – Appointments
• Green – Billing
• Orange – Claims Management (Electronic Exchange or Transfer)
• Yellow – Reports

Visit Number No Longer Appended for Certain CPIDs
To meet specific carrier requirements, the alpha character (included on the visit number to
differentiate the number of times the claim is billed) will now be stripped from claims for the
CPIDs listed below.

Note: Currently, the PM appends each visit number on a claim with an alphabetic
character in order to differentiate the instances a claim is billed or rebilled. Each time
you rebill a claim, the alphabetic character will change to the next letter (e.g., 1234A,
1234B, 1234C, etc.).

CPID 1402, 1410, and 1429

• Professional electronic, X12 (5010 downloadable), and CMS 1500 paper claims

CPID 1513

• l Institutional electronic and UB04 paper claims

To improve workflow efficiency, we have changed the number of days pending renewal
requests are displayed in the Prescriptions Renewal Requests grid from 30 to 14, as most
pharmacies do not accept prescription renewal requests that are older than 14 days.

Mail Merge Options Moved
The Patient Mail Merge and Collections Mail Merge options have been moved from the
Reports drop-down menu to the Utilities drop-down menu.
Go to the Utilities | Mail Merge drop-down menu to access and run these reports.

Previous to this update, the mail merge options were accessed in the Reports menu as
follows:

• Reports | Patient Listings | Patient Mail Merge
• Reports | A/R Control Center | Collections Mail Merge

Required Signatures on Consent Forms
We have updated AdvancedPatient™ consent forms with a new required signature field,
[requiredsignature], to help your office capture needed signatures.

Use the required signature field to indicate when a patient must sign or decline to sign a
consent form.

Required signature fields are marked with a red asterisk.

Consent form templates are set up in Master Files | Templates | AdvancedPatient Forms | Patient Consent Forms in PM and in Admin | Templates | Patient Consent Form Templates in EHR.

New Report Center
We are happy to announce the following updates to the Report Center:

• The new Report Center has replaced the legacy Report Center.
• Scheduling, AdvancedInsight, and the new Report Center display in the Reports
  drop-down menu.
• All links in the Reports drop-down menu will open the new Report Center.
• Flex reports, Inventory, and EMR reports are only available in Internet Explorer®.

Insurance Tab
We have added a new Patient Information display field on the Insurance tab that contains the patient’s name, date of birth, and social security number, so both insurance and patient information can be found on one screen.

AdvancedPatient Suite (PM/EHR/Mobile)
We have updated AdvancedPatient™ consent forms with a new required signature field, [requiredsignature], to help your office capture needed signatures. Use the required signature field to indicate when a patient must sign or decline to sign a consent form.
