Version 4.9

•	The Medicare Only fee is shown on Fee page (smaller type for de-emphasis) and can be selected as account fee.

•

The Medicare Only fee is calculated by adding the rebate calculated for each item after rounding up to 5 cents - this corrects previous rounding inaccuracies with calculating the rebate from the total schedule fee. Rounding up includes the 3rd decimal place e.g. $10.001 rounds up to $10.05. Previously the 3 place was ignored so that 10.001 would round to $10.00.

•	The Medicare rebate is calculated according to individual item in- or out-of-hospital flags, rather than overall flag on Operation page. This calculates the correct rebate if both in- and out-of-hospital items exist.

•	The Medicare rebate calculation includes an adjustment for the Medicare 'Maximum Patient Gap'. Rates for this will be stored in the Items file in future versions.

•	The total Medicare rebate is shown at the bottom of the Items page in a green field above the total schedule fee. Individual item rebates can be shown by ticking the Show Rebates checkbox.

•	Adjusted form letter field codes to use accurate MBS 75% and 85% rebates calculated on each item.

•

The time of the last ERA Status Request is recorded to the nearest minute, instead of the nearest day. Less likely to miss ERAs by having gaps in status requests. ERAs available 'today' were previously not retrieved since the default last time was the previous midnight. The default is now the current time.

•	IMC Processing reports change the status of an account to 'Payment approved - Eclipse' if the rebate covers the total fee. Previously this did not happen if a copayment existed, now it does.

•	When an IMC claim is sent successfully, the focus moves to the <Close> rather than the <Statement> button.

•	Put <e> button (Eclipse Menu) on the toolbar on the Main Menu and Payments screen.

•	Added row labels to the status and report functions on the Eclipse menu for easier reference.

Some clients had issues with AA crashing after sending online claims. These changes were made to assist.

•	Changed Forms![PatientsF]![hic_ClaimsSFC].Form.Requery to Forms![PatientsF].Refresh in IMC form Close procedure.

•	Added invisible close button to IMC form which does not refresh account form. User must refresh manually.

•	When a batch payment is processed, the updated status of the processed accounts is shown in a list on the last page. The list may be transferred to the List of Accounts for further review if desired.

•	Reinstated the function to Retry/Cancel when a new account is abandoned. Clients did not like the function where 'Name Missing' was saved with the account as multiple blank accounts could easily appear.

•

After pre-paid accounts are printed, the user is prompted as to whether to update the payment status appropriately. A prompt is required since some users may want to keep status as it currently is since additional editing may be required for operative and fee details. Previously no changes to status were made and the pre-paid status always had to be manually updated.

•	Adjusted the merchant fee calculator to include a BPay transaction fee. The latest rates entered are saved as defaults (must be re-entered after a program update).

•	Adjusted auto-ordering function to recognize 17610-90 item numbers and 'preop' text.

•	Fee rounding calculation now rounds up to next 5 cents. Previously rounded to nearest 5 cents.

•	Showed account type in red type just near Total Fee on Fee page, for emphasis.

•	Adjusted Report Received date/time field in Eclipse tab so digits show correctly in A2000+.

•	Fixed 'Illegal function call' when retrieving BB reports from Eclipse menu.

•	Fixed bug where payment instructions may not appear for MyOwn Fee account if Eclipse OPV done.

•	Fixed bug in Extra Items box where no records were found (form filter saved during development).

•	Fixed bug where missing provider number in a data file prevented list of providers being populated.
