Improvements
Manitoba: Two-digit limit for billing item quantities
When adding billing items, the Service Unit, Anes. Unit, and Number of Patients fields are now limited to a maximum of two digits to align with Manitoba Health requirements.
To submit more than 99 units, enter 99 units and include supporting text with the remaining quantity.
Manitoba: Viewing fee item transaction details after submission
The transaction details icon (i) on a fee item is now available immediately after you submit a bill to Manitoba Health. Previously, this icon only appeared after the first assessment was received from the ministry.
This gives you access to the claim number and transaction history immediately upon submission, making it easier to reference specific billing details when contacting Manitoba Health with questions about a claim.
Ontario: Diagnostic list updates
Diagnostic code 308 (Gender Dysphoria) is now available in the Ontario diagnostic code list for billing.
PEI: Fee code updates
We updated the fee code list with the following changes:
Fee code 0079 now supports inpatient facility type and is available at Kings County Memorial Hospital and Western Hospital.
Fee codes 0502, 5165, and 5236 are now available for General Surgery specialists.
Fixes
When you access the Visits dashboard, log out and log in again, the Visits dashboard opens without requiring a browser refresh.
When sending referral acceptance, rejection, or waitlist letters from a referral, the Contact Full Address variable now populates with the recipient's address on initial letter generation.
When annotating documents, Share and Mark Done now remain disabled until all changes are saved.
When you attach a Health Profile item to a referral, save the referral, and then click the attachment, the item now opens in an edit window as expected.
For clinics who have the redesigned patient chart header enabled, the Export patient chart option in the More actions menu is now correctly hidden for users who do not have the Export patient chart permission.
In some cases, an eFax file attached to a patient's chart was incorrectly shown as still uploading in the inbox, causing it to appear greyed out and unclickable even though the file was accessible from the patient's chart.
For clinics with role-based access control (RBAC) enabled, inbox messages sent to multiple users across different locations now open correctly, even when one of the receiving users doesn't have inbox access permissions.
British Columbia: Incoming Meditech lab results that are updates to existing results now correctly replace previous results instead of appearing as new tests.
📌 Note: New CHR versions are released on a regular bi-weekly schedule. However, there are times where a fix is released prior to the next scheduled release. These off-schedule release fixes are documented in the separate off-schedule release notes.
