Feature Updates

Checked Out Invoices

When an invoice is paid in full, it will automatically be marked checked out—so you don't have to go back to change the invoice status after receiving the payment.

Patient Lifecycle

The filter options have been updated to also include (on top of existing filters):

  • Physical exams

  • Vitals

  • Files

    • Addendum

    • Document

    • Imaging

    • Lab

    • Patient

Tip: This is a great way to view all exams (and only exams) in one place.

Inventory Updates

Location and vendors can now be exported as a CSV.

Patient History

  • Chronic conditions added outside of a SOAP no longer list the user who added the condition as the doctor since that user may not be a doctor.

  • Patient notes now have a title option so you can better organize the patient history from a glance.

    • The user who added the patient note will no longer be listed as the doctor since this user may not be a doctor.

Physical Exams

The text boxes inside of a physical exam are now expandable so you can see all of your notes without having to scroll to the right for longer entries.

Client Emails

Automatic appointment reminder emails that are sent to clients are now logged in the client activity log.

Reporting

  • Totals are now statically displayed so you can see them without having to scroll

  • Totals reflect any on-screen filtering that is applied

Tip: For the Summary Report, each section total can be exported individually, and will reflect any on-screen filters

  • The controlled drug report had some small rounding differences between the in-app report, the CSV, and the PDF which have been resolved

Coming soon: an export for all reports that reflects any on-screen filters
