I got some more detailed information on some of the version 14 features:

Thanks to a new pricing structure, upgrading to the new Medisoft release every year will save you money over upgrading every two versions. Upgrade to Medisoft Version 14 (v14), by McKesson Corporation, before March 21, 2008 and enjoy an immediate savings of up to 10% off the list price.

:D Patient Quick Entry - Can cuts patient data entry time up to 80%
Patient Quick Entry is a feature designed to redefine the way Medisoft is used. Data entry needs vary from state to state and from insurance carrier to insurance carrier. Traditionally, when entering patient information, it has been up to the users to know which fields to use, which fields to ignore, navigating between multiple fields and multiple
windows on the patient and case entry screens, to enter vital patient and claim information.

The Patient Quick Entry will allow you to consolidate patient entry into one easy screen that will allow users to define which fields they want to view, which fields they want required, the order in which the fields are displayed, and define the hints that will be displayed over each field. You can also have pre-set templates for different patient and
insurance types, for example, Medicare patients, commercial insurance patients, and cash-pay patients.

:) The DASHBOARD Screen
The Dashboard screen gives you quick previews of the financial information available within practice. You will be able to get totals and values in real time that previously required running reports. Additionally, you will be able to see which users are logged in and where - on the Network Professional. You will also be able to view trends using graphs over a period of time which then can be saved to an image format and either be imported into a word document or emailed. You will also be able to create custom warnings that will indicate when certain key values such as Accounts Receivable decrease below a user-defined range.

:P Global Days or Global Surgery
What is the Global Days feature (also known as Global Surgery)?
A Global fee for surgical procedures is a long established concept under which a single fee is billed and paid for all necessary services normally performed by the surgeon before, during, and after the surgical procedure. The global reimbursement, as listed, includes the pre-operative care necessary for the specific surgical procedure, completion of hospital records, initiation of treatment, local anesthesia (including local infiltration, digital block, or topical anesthesia), the surgical procedure, and post-operative care that
normally follows the specific surgical procedure. Global Surgery includes all necessary services normally furnished by a surgeon before, during and after the procedure. Payment for a surgical procedure includes pre-, intra-, and post- operative services routinely performed by the surgeon.

8) UB-04 Billing
The UB-04 is a standard insurance claim for clinical billing in rural health clinics, nursing homes, and hospice centers to name a few. Additionally, version 14 will allow UB-04 print image creation. (We also have a UB-04 for Medisoft version 8 through 12 if you need it.)

:lol: ERA Date Enhancements
Prior to Medisoft Version 14, there were only two options available in the ERA program to determine which date would be used on the payments entered via the ERA posting. A Prompt for Date has been included in Medisoft Version 14 which allows the user to specify the date of payments.

:D File Locking in Deposit Entry
In previous versions of Medisoft, opening the Apply Payment to Charges window in Deposit Entry locked out all other program features. There is a new View Transactions button which opens a Read Only Transaction Entry window with the same account from the Deposit List. This feature allows access and operability to all of the functions within Medisoft.
