VetNotes integration?

I hear that OpenVPMS are "super keen" on integration with VetNotes, a new app developed by Mitchell Sigley, the son of 2 vets from the NSW Central Coast. It translates verbal notes/records into written patient records and sounds quite promising.

Is there any truth to that? Happy to contribute.

New Dose Calculations

Currently the medication dose calculations only support 

Dose (unit/kg) x weight (kg) to give a Unit / dose calculation

Suggesting

Add support for different mathematics  specifically BSA dose calculations.

One problem is that different groups use different BSA coeffecients - ie we dont all agree on the exact equations.

 

 

Automatic Billing

Hi,

This may not be something for many in the OpenVPMS community, but I thought I'd bring it up here as a feature development request.

I am wanting to automate the billing of our hospitalisation charges.

My idea is:

* When a patient is transferred into a particular hospital worklist, a charge is added to the bill "Hospital Admit" ie $200

* Each patient that is in a particular hospital worklist at 6am or 6pm is charged "Hospitalisation" ie $100

Missed appointment warning to reception - audible or flashing light?

Wondering if is is possible to develop a warning to reception for missed appointment on Workflow - Scheduling?

Ideally the reminder bell on the edge of the appointment flashing red and perhaps even an audible signal audible to reception. This is in frustration after years of asking reception to make a call to an owner if they have not arrived 10-15 minutes after the appointment is scheduled. It feels like some of them are asleep at the wheel.

Suggestion: field entries and patient info

Hey team, just a couple of suggestions for making the flow of things faster and easier - 

> in fields such as "Appointment Reason" and "Diagnosis" (when making insurance claims), would it be possible to change it so that we can just freely type something into the field instead of having to choose from the giant list?

Surgical Procedure Template

Hi,

Firstly we have a product/medication called "theatre fee" that has many fixed prices that can be charged when invoicing different procedures.

Is it possible to create a Surgical Procedure Template that selects the correct fixed price theatre fee to the template, or would I need to make all of my fixed prices an individual product?

I feel it previously did select and attach correctly and I have possibly entered something in incorrectly that has changed it.

 

Thanks in advance,

Bernadette :) 

Merge clinical noye

Is there a way of merging clinical notes of a patient that has been added to the system twice under the same owner. Currently one client ID number but with 2 Patient IDs for same patient

Prescription *Renew* button

Good morning

While we are throwing around ideas for possible improvements ...

I'd love to see a "Renew" or "Copy & Edit" button for expired or used up prescriptions. We use the prescriptions LOTS for chronic meds, and having a push button copy / renew would be sweet.

cheers,

Chris

SMS appointment reminders not affected by the Remind SMSs

Hi,

When a client books an appointment, our staff have started clicking the Remind button to send them an instant SMS about their appointment.

If they do this, the automatic SMS reminders we have configured for the day before their appointment is not sent (the bell is already gold so it doesn't send).

We would like the automatic SMSs to still send as an extra reminder (sometimes appointments are made weeks in advance)

Multiple Line selection on Supplier Deliveries

Hi,

Would it be possible to have a tick box on each line of the Supplier Deliveries so I can delete multiple lines in one go. We have quite a few items which are not invoice items in OpenVPMS, so I need to delete them one by one each time. Would be great if I could select all the items that don't have an OpenVPMS product and delete in one go.
