CompuDoc 7 has maintained the ease of use and time saving features for which it is well known, and added the following improvements.

 

New CompuDoc database is Client\Server ready
  • Database supports Client\Server operations, only needs programme changes to function as true Client\Server - an SQL Server type of database without the 2Gb limitations.
  • No BDE setup or configuration issues.
  • No external DLLs are necessary - the database engine is built into the CompuDoc application file.
  • Simpler, more robust table reindexing and repairing.
  • Vastly reduced risk of data corruption.
  • Many facilities load in less than half the time.

Vast improvements in CompuPad editor
  • Mail merge letters to a target demographic, using templates that may be re-used and customised.
  • The label printer in the mail merge facility allows printing to begin at a specific label on the sheet.
  • Spell checker and thesaurus are included.
  • Simple Query allows data tables to be queried in plain English, without your having to learn SQL.

More accounting functions
  • Invoices may be discounted and written off.
  • Discount, write-off and delete functions are available in 'Acct Summary', 'Reprint or Delete' and 'Outstanding accounts'.
  • Discounts and write-offs are identified on patients statements.
  • Reduced risk of billing with old claim (batch) number - all claim numbers are checked at the time of billing, and a warning issued if that claim number has been used on a DB1.

Audit Trail
  • Discounts and write-offs may (optionally) only be performed by level 4 or 5 users, after the user has been identified.
  • The Audit Trail Report displays who performed the alteration, when, and why.
  • An Audit trail report prints a record of all record modifications.
  • Mismatched Bulk Bill claims that have been altered after transmission of the claim are identified in BatchTracker, and a special version of the Audit Trail report can display all modifications to that claim number's records.

Faster more flexible Reprint or Delete
  • Only the last 100 patients are loaded into memory by default.
  • Filter by invoice number, patient name, patient ID, or claim number.
  • Discount, write off invoices, and alter claim numbers in Reprint or Delete.

More functions in Account Summary
  • Accounts may be overpaid in Acct. Summary, allowing 'credit' to be built up. Shows as payment in statements and Banking report.
  • Open Reprint or Delete instantly, showing just the invoice that was highlighted in Account Summary.
  • Pay, Delete, Discount or write off invoices from Account Summary - without having to open Reprint or Delete.
  • Include\exclude archived records in the patient's Account Summary list.

Better Medclaims support
  • Claim numbers are automatically incremented (if possible) as soon as a DB1 is printed. Only if the number has been used before is it necessary to open AutoBatch.
  • BatchTracker provides instant access to the Audit Trail report in the case of claims that have had invoices altered since transmission.

Clinical notes

  • Add a new note while prescribing, or a prescription while adding a note.

  • The patient's current and previous medications are listed right alongside the note.

  • Notes are protected from being edited after midnight on the day of their creation.

  • Add an addendum at any time.

Prescription writing
  • Uses the latest MIMS data, including interactions.
  • Save Doctor's favourites.
  • Fast re-issuing of repeated items by selecting the item and clicking on Print.
  • Drug Finder is always available for trade and generic types.
  • Find trade or generic names.
  • Pop up illustrated MIMS Product Information.
  • Pop up and print CMI.

Scanning support
  • Scan directly to image without scanner's interface application.
  • Save scanned images in holding bay and assign to patients later.
  • Crop, rotate, zoom images.
  • Change colour depth - reduce colour images to black and white.
  • Import images directly without scanning.
  • Save images in different formats.
  • Save a note and description of every record.

Better recall letter support
  • Create, Edit or Search is available in both Demographics and Clinical pages.
  • The notification messages are always visible in both Demographics and Clinical pages.
  • A message is always visible on the CompuDoc status bar, from any page, when recalls are due or overdue.

Better training facilities
  • A Demo database may be dynamically hooked\unhooked to allow staff training.
  • Accounts and prescriptions printed in Demo mode are overprinted with watermarks.
  • Most facilities have dummy records that may be added to and edited without fear of interfering with the practice's records.

Waiting Room improvements
  • Appointments and Waiting Room are directly linked allowing billing from the Waiting Room to alter the appointment's icon.
  • Records cannot be edited and left indefinitely in an edit state - all editing is via a pop-up window activated by new edit bar or double-clicking on a record.

Patient archive and merge utility
  • Remove inactive or deceased patients to an archive.
  • Return accidentally archived patients from the archive.
  • Automatically Merge patient data (billing, clinical etc) when patient archived.
  • Manually merge records without archiving.
  • The SyncNumbers utility contains a Data Integrity Report to monitor such movements.

More password control options
  • CompuDoc may be set to require password access at start-up, or other critical areas.
  • Set password requirements for record editing - discounting, writing off etc.

New backup programme
  • Backs up to a single file.
  • File size can be reduced considerably by compression.
  • Restore function can replace the entire database with a backup.

Up to the minute interface
  • XP style presentation can be customised extensively.
  • Uses less resources in Win 98 than earlier versions, despite being larger.
  • More pages in the Tutorial, though CompuDoc 7 uses less resources.
