| • | Reformatted all items on the Fee page to improve readability. |
| • | When entering a total $ fee for the account, this is now entered in the SF Plus row, instead of in the Basic Fee box on the top right. This is to reduce confusion about which fee is selected when a total $ amount is entered. |
| • | A new function allows calculating the fee based on Medicare rebate plus a $ amount, as opposed to the SF plus a $ amount. Type an amount into the relevant box to adjust the fee. This is then inserted appropriately into the SF+ fee calculation details. This also allows easily creating a Medicare only account by entering zero into the SF75+ field. If nothing is entered into this box, it will show the difference between SF75 and the selected fee (i.e. the total gap). |
Co-Payments
| • | A check box has been provided to specify that the co-payment fee should be shown on the health fund account. This will appear on the account as a note below the main items list and account message. If no co-payment is charged, a tick in the box will show a 'No co-payment' message on the account. |
| • | An operation date code (#OD) has been added to the available co-payment message codes in the Options form. The default message now states e.g. 'The fee for your anaesthetic service on 27/05/2006 is $500.00'. |
| • | When printing accounts from the details screen, the print dialog box allows selecting either the standard or co-payment account. This avoids the need to go to the Fee page to print the co-payment or co-payment receipt. The default for the two buttons is the same as it was previously, except where a co-payment payment has been made, the default for the main Print button is changed to the co-payment account. |
