It's time for your monthly dose of Pearl updates! | |||
Pearl is prescribing you a new Prescriptions tab, new NHS changes and much more! | |||
==Pearl Prescriptions Creator== | |||
We are introducing a new feature that will allow the recording/auditing of prescriptions. | |||
To begin using Prescriptions, you will need to ensure your staff have a valid GDC number and are set as a prescriber. To do this, go to: | |||
Settings > Staff Setup > Edit Staff | |||
Next, you may need to add additional prescription items and Justifications. These can all be amended under the new settings menu: | |||
Settings > Prescriptions Setup | |||
• Prescription Items: require a code, details and the type of item. | |||
• Justification Types | |||
• Symptom Types | |||
You can now add a new prescription from the Charting via the tab on the right hand side next to Clinical notes, BPE, Medical Warnings and Triage. | |||
Prescriptions are locked to their default details and recommended dosages but may be unlocked and amended if needed. | |||
Finally a paper Prescription can be printed. This can be either to a card printer or a A4 paper sheet. | |||
We hope to have the NHS FP10-D version available soon | |||
==Future Bills Pending Symbol== | |||
The £ symbol now can show Orange if the bill is after today. This is useful for Patients who might be on a payment plan, and have nothing to pay for today. | |||
If the patient has any bills due that put them at a negative balance it will show Red regardless. | |||
==NHS Reform Changes== | |||
The NHS changes are still going ahead on the 1st October. | |||
Please note this update does not include the additional band 2 (5 or 7 UDA) changes which the NHS have delayed until November this year. | |||
See the details below. | |||
One of the changes relates to the promoting of skills mix in the dental practice. This means you can include a DCP GDC Number for the DCP who may have carried out all or some of a course of treatment and an indicator to show in what capacity they operated. | |||
To improve patient outcomes NHS England now require the highest sextant BPE score in the mouth. This is mandatory on all adult banded claims (Bands 1, 2 and 3) | |||
If you are recording BPE's within Pearl this will be imported automatically, otherwise at least one of the BPE sextants will need to be completed. | |||
Molar and Non-Molar Endodontics have been split into separate boxes, which will be calculated automatically by Pearl from the Charting. | |||
There is also a new code which is required to record the total number of Untreated Decayed Teeth at the clinical examination | |||
==SMS Report Shows Delivery Status== | |||
The SMS Report from a Patients mobile will now include an SMS delivery status, identifying if the message has been delivered successfully, sent but not yet received or failed. | |||
• Sent SMS is normally due to the recipients phone not having signal | |||
• Failed SMS could be an invalid mobile number or the mobile service provider did not accept the message. | |||
==Other Side Effect Changes...== | |||
• Pearl now automatically focuses on text boxes where additional notes are available | |||
• You can now use the escape and enter key to close and confirm on many windows for example transactions / adding appointments. | |||
• A clear warning in Pearl when a letter has invalid merge fields | |||
• Saving filters now will include column ordering. Holding the SHIFT key and left clicking allows for multiple column ordering too! | |||
• Automatic [[Reminders]] button! click here for more info | |||
• More Orthodontic assessment fields on Patient Filtering including IOTN, Assessment outcome, and more! | |||
