The ability to reach out to a patient through a text message was just added to HandyWorks, thanks to the encouragement of Dr. Timothy W. We are able to do this with the help of clicksend.com, a large and well supported web business that provides the actual sending software. Messages cost 2.5 cents each if they are under 160 characters and there is a monthly fee of $1.68.
Over the last 2 months, we have been refining the process to make it even easier to use. GIVE IT A TRY!
When there were more than 4 columns being used in the calendar, the daily report would shift to a LANDSCAPE mode that included all 10 columns. The latest version 2/13/2024 keeps the portrait version for both 5 and 6 column reports.
For some unknown reason, we had only provided corrected claim info on resubmitted claims when billing electronically. That has now been fixed and the corrected claims info will now appear on printed HCFAs.
Wellcare Medicare: One user is reporting to us that the onset/first treatment date codes are not being accepted by this carrier. This is something that has not been resolved as of this update.
And, as usual – a few more quotes and some minor cosmetic changes here and there.
We found a few situations where users were able to create claimsets that failed to pass edits. We corrected these issues. A fix to the financial reports clears up some issues of not including certain inactive patients.
We have a few minor tweaks in this version.
The tab Month at a glance on the bottom of the calendar has been completely reworked to show the day-by-day visit counts for each room. Take a bird’s eye view of your appointments.
Wow! 5 characters are not enough. So we expanded the field to 9 in Carriers. Use it if you need it. Otherwise, there is no difference for most of you.
Also, we finally squashed a reporting bug that occurred when closing the program. It was happening when a record in case data was not saved. It was being automatically saved when the program closed, but a subsequent update function wouldn’t work. All fixed now. No more error messages if colosing with an unsaved case data record.
A few items have changed for the better.
We added a new Monthly Stats report to break down how many distinct patient visits occurred each month. If a patient saw you 12 times, it would count as one patient visit. It will automatically run when you run the original Monthly Stats report.
The dropdown next patient visit dates on the calendar has been specifically ordered by date. Prior, it was ordered by date of entry, which appeared to be by date but actually wasn’t. Also, the next appointment sheet given to patients now has the day of the week as part of that report.
Lastly, the SALT button in Exams was fixed to reflect the latest exam, not the earliest.
