Resolved issues
Merative Integrated Care
- Conditional questions in an assessment or questionnaire that are configured to be conditionally displayed when a check box is checked are not displaying when the condition is met. (235151, TS001275719)
- In the supervisor application, an error message displays when you click the number of clients enrolled in a particular program on the Enrollment Status card. (229035, TS000170630)
- When you register a client in instances of Merative Integrated Care with organization units enabled, if you click ‘Back’ in the Client Registration wizard, the information that you entered in the previous wizard screens disappears and must be reentered. (234385)
- If you use budgets, updating the end date of a closed service to a later date can lead to a budget overspend. To avoid this issue, if you are updating the end date of a closed service, ensure that you reopen the associated budget. (232152)
Merative Integrated Care Connect Providers
- When a provider makes an offer to provider a service, the expected start date and the offer expiry date are displaying incorrectly in both the Connect application and Merative Integrated Care. The displayed date is 1 day before the date entered by the provider, for example, the provider enters an expected start date of 12 July 2018, then the date displayed is 11 July 2018. (232319)
Known Issues
Merative Integrated Care
- 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 might 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)

- When you filter medication records, records with no start date are not filtered correctly. (234428)

- 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)
- When a 3 letter search is performed when adding Conditions, Medications, or Allergies in Merative Integrated Care, a blank page displays if too many results to display are returned. To avoid this issue, refine your search criteria. (217057, TS000047126, TS000055247)
