What's new for care teams

 

View more information about care team members

 

Merative Integrated Care

 

So that you can quickly identify the care team member that performed an action, you can now view the care team member’s profile and contact details as a tooltip on the following pages:

 

• Referrals
• Consent records
• Client status

 

Recording the source and original Source for notes and touchpoints

Merative Integrated Care

 

So that you can identify if a note or touchpoint was created by the care team in Merative Integrated Care, or received from an external system, you can now view the source and the original source system values for notes and touchpoints.

 

Deleting a client

 

Merative Integrated Care

 

To ensure that a deleted client’s information is no longer accessible, when you delete a client, the client’s summary closes and you are returned to the Care Manager workspace (the Merative Integrated Care home page). In addition, the client is now removed from your Recent Items list.

 

New notes filters

Merative Integrated Care

 

To ensure that a deleted client’s information is no longer accessible, when you delete a client, the client’s summary now closes and you are returned to the Care Manager workspace (the Merative Integrated Care home page). In addition, the client is now removed from your Recent Items list.

 

What's new for administrators

 

Adding questionnaire questions

 

Merative Integrated Care

 

Previously, when you configured questionnaires you could configure up to 80 questions.  You can now configure questionnaires that have a maximum of 100 questions. 

 

Configuring more questions for questionnaires

 

Merative Integrated Care

 

When you are configuring conditional questions in a questionnaire in previous versions of Merative Integrated Care, when you reached the maximum number of conditional questions that you could add, the link to add more questions was disabled. To improve your user experience by making it clearer that you cannot add more questions, an informational message now tells you that no more conditional questions can be added.

 

Configuring an external system reference

Merative Integrated Care

 

The External System Reference identifies items received through an API from an external application so that the items can be matched against a configured value in Merative Integrated Care. Once the item is matched against a configured value, a record is created for the client.

 

For example, if the action Meal Plan Assistance is configured by the administrator to have an External System Reference CAMP1. Then, when action data is received via an external application for Laurie Thompson, in addition to the information that identifies Laurie and the action details, if the action data includes the External System Reference CAMP1, Merative Integrated Care matched the received action data to the configured Meal Plan Assistance action. A Meal Plan Assistance action is then created on Laurie Thompson’s plan and assigned to a general goal.

 

You can specify an External System Reference for the following items:

 

• Source system
• Original source system
• Actions.

 

 

What's new for reporting

 

Reporting education and documentation

Reporting

 

To help report creators to better understand and to get up to speed quickly with Merative Integrated Care Reporting, details of the coverage data model are included to help you better understand the design of the coverage folder when you are designing reports. The relationships used in the model are highlighted that use some examples from the Coverage folder.

 

 

What's new for integrations and APIs

 

Searching for a client in both Merative Integrated Care and Merative Explorys EPM Registry

 

Merative Integrated Care

 

If your instance of Merative Integrated Care is integrated with EPM Registry, you can now search across both applications for a client so that you can find the client in the system that they are registered in.

 

New and updated APIs

 

Merative Integrated Care

 

• A new API, the Care Team Actions API, is now available to receive care team actions from an external system that are created for clients that are registered in Merative Integrated Care.
• The Notes API is updated to include Source and Original Source system values and also to identify the Note Type by the corresponding External System Reference code.
• The Touchpoints API is updated to include Source and Original Source system values so the Merative Integrated Care user can understand the source of the touchpoints.

Resolved issues

 

Merative Integrated Care

 

• When you are adding services to a client’s plan and click + to search for services in the Services library, the service names are not displaying correctly in the list returned. (TS001356047)
• If you are using Internet Explorer 11, you cannot update text in a text field. To update the text, you must first delete the existing text and then add the update. (236955, TS001401682)
• When you are planning a client’s services from the Plan view, the first service returned when you search for a service does not display correctly. There is a blank space where the service name is. (236474)
• If you add a Risk to the Risk summary card, the card might not refresh automatically with the added risk. Refresh the card manually if this occurs. (235446)
• A timeout error can occur when the administrator is trying to add a new conditional question to a questionnaire. To avoid this issue, avoid adding more than 80 conditional questions to a questionnaire. (235186, TS001135337, TS000991724)
• When an original source system value is created and associated with any data type, an error displays when the administrator views the expanded view of the data type on the Source Systems data types list page. To avoid this error, the original source system can be configured for the date types by opening the Edit data type page from the Source Systems data types list page. To resolve the error, you can open the Edit page for the original source system, and save it with the selected data types. (235513)
• When you are creating a questionnaire, if you are editing a Goal Suggestion so that an action is automatically added to the goal, when you save the goal suggestion, the page does not close and the Suggestion page opens incorrectly. However, the details entered are saved. (235490)
• If a task was created by one user and updated by another user, when you click the name of the user that updated the task so that you can see that user’s details, the details of the user that created the task are shown instead. (235295)
• When you navigate to the Care Team page from the tooltip on a care team member’s name on the Task page, the Task page does not close. (235215)

Known Issues

 

Merative Integrated Care

 

• The fields in the New Note page are not aligned correctly. (237562)
• Google maps are not loading when an administrator click the confirm location link when registering a new provider’s address. (237730)
• When a document is attached to a Client’s Consent Record and the Consent Record is in the Received status, the Delete row level action for the attachment is disabled. (237185)
• If you are using the Chrome browser to sign up to receive payments via PayPal, when you complete the sign-up steps in PayPal the browser hangs instead of confirming that the sign-up is complete and returning you to Connect. If this issue occurs, refresh the browse page. (236522)

• For systems integrated with EPM, the alert triggered when EPM returns Risk Scores to Merative Integrated Care might contain some inaccurate information. The alert indicates that the client has been matched on the EPM system and clinical data has been received by Merative Integrated Care. However, this might not be the case as Risk scores are automatically generated for any client received by EPM even if the client was not matched on EPM. (223580)

Reporting

 

• The reporting application is treating Allergy names as case-sensitive, for example, when you generate a report of the number of clients with specific allergy types, allergy names in different cases are being considered as two different allergies. (224396)
