SPR51010 Inquiries can now be run to find patients based on Race Subcategory andEthnicity Subcategory. SPR 62218 An end date is no longer required when changing a Test Order. SPR 62535/SPR58666 Fixed an issue where the default printer randomly changed. SPR 62575/SPR61077 Fixed an issue where removed items on the medication list appeared in the wrongorder.

SPR 62618/SPR 60046 Updated copyright information on the login window. SPR 62619/SPR 58409 TOC documents can now be created when an order status is “In Process”.A change from “Admin Hold” to “In Process” status is a trigger for an automatedTOC send and can have implications depending on your workflows:1This change affects customers using the Orders Module to create ReferralOrders that have a status of “In Process” when signed and are using anautomated TOC CCDA generation process (QIE TOC).A CCDA TOC automatically generates when a Referral Order is “In Process”and has a service provider with an electronic address. When an order like thisis signed, the TOC generates and sends an un-customized TOC. When aReferral Coordinator returns to the Referral Order to customize, create, andsend a TOC at a later time, a second TOC is generated and sent to therecipient provider. The recipient provider can expect to receive two differentTOCs, whose difference depends on the amount of customization, at two2

What’s new in this release?different times, depending on the duration between original signing and TOC/referral coordination.It does not affect the MANUAL Surescripts Secure Message workflow.2This change affects all customers; GE's definition of “In Process” is changed.Previously, “In Process” meant that all referral coordination was completed,and the order was sent. Now it means the CCDA can still be generated andmodified. This may cause some confusion to users that are used to how theorders module works.SPR 61535/SPR 62646 The Immunization HTML form now records clinical list changes for historicalvaccines.

SPR 62747/SPR 62714 Fixed an issue where an “Undefined” message appeared on certain medications.SPR 62763/SPR 62224 Assessments are now included in the CCDA as structured data. SPR 62774/SPR62822 CCDA GE General Observation section now includes all observation data. SPR62775/SPR 62825 CCDA documents now include tracer IDs.

SPR 62793/SPR 58047 Fixed an issue where patients were randomly left off a statement run whenbatching them from Reports File Statements. SPR 62849/SPR 61659Known issuesIntermittent errors when upgrading on Windows Server 2012Occasionally, users on Windows Server 2012 may see the error : “Windows server2008 R2 is required and SQL server instance is NOT hosted on Windows server 2008R2.
