Enterprise Edition 14.7.2 Release Notes

April 2, 2014

Below are the latest updates to Enterprise Edition.

firstHOMECARE & firstHOSPICE

Maintenance

●       Billing - An error would occur when previewing / posting batches, caused by inappropriate data underlying the patient's name "suffix".  The suffix is the element where "jr", "sr", "MD", and similar distinctions are appended to a patient name.  A technical fault meant that in some cases this element was missing, instead of the more normal blank.  As a user you would not have been able to distinguish missing from blank.  This has now been corrected.

firstHOSPICE

Maintenance

●       Billing – Certain hospice claims missing from Download Bills.  Claims containing inpatient stay at a third-party provider (a provider other than the primary hospice) are now required by CR8358 to include the NPI for that secondary provider.  Some of these claims were missing from Download Bills; the first patient processed in a given batch, for the claim's type of bill, would be included successfully, and those after the first patient that had a facility being reported would be missing.  This has been corrected, and the missing claims will now properly appear in Download Bills.
