70.0 Release Notes

New

Collaboration Sharing Center

  • Published a new Restoration progress note template.

Demographics (Patient/Provider/Individual/External Provider)

  • The demographics pages have been rebuilt in the new, more robust framework being used throughout ICE.
  • Speed of loading and entering demographic information has been significantly improved.
  • The workflow and layout of entering contact methods has been streamlined as follows:
    • Separate areas are available to immediately add an address, phone number or email.
    • Once a user has added one contact method, for example a phone number, then new fields are added so that a second phone number can be added if desired.
    • Placeholder text appears for all contact information fields.

Improved

Documents

  • Both date and time are recorded and displayed once a document has been signed in a signature field.
  • Signature fields now include placeholder text so that users know where to sign.

Item Notes

  • Areas with buttons that indicate "View Item Notes" are now showing a count of the total number of notes. For example, on the Patient Referral and Financial Administrative Charge screens, the button now indicates the count, e.g. "View Item Notes (3)".

Odontogram/Dentition

  • From the Odontogram panel and the Findings input window, there is a gear icon (hover text "Odontogram Settings") that provides the user with various display settings and one action "Reset Dentition".
    • One such setting "Enable Zoom", when set to ON, will zoom to the tooth when hovering (previously was zooming each quadrant or sextant).
    • There is now a "Reset Dentition" button that will update the dentition based on what is expected for the current age. This is very useful when a user accidentally created a patient with the incorrect date of birth.
  • Please note: The Manage Dentition button from the top left corner from all three Charting Menus is no longer present. To manage a patient's dentition, you can simply click on the four arrow icon (hover text "Enable Edit Mode") from either the Odontogram panel or the Findings input window.

Orthodontic and Periodontal Charting

  • To allow for easier workflows, the following panels are now available from the Orthodontic and Periodontal Charting workspaces:
    • Treatment Planning
    • General Odontogram
    • General Procedure List

Patient Management

  • The options for patient gender have been updated and a field for birth sex added based on recommended research and guidelines from the UCSF Center for Excellence for Transgender Health and the Trans* Toolkit from the Canadian Aids Society. Collecting accurate and appropriate gender related data enhances ICE’s commitment to professionalism and dignity in patient care as well as improving health for all individuals and all communities.
    • These gender related fields, along with pronouns, are available for any individual within the ICE system (Patients, Providers, External Providers, Individuals).
