[#20754] Arrange diagnosis codes on claims in the same order as they are entered

Previously, EMSOW did not keep the order of ICD-10 codes that were entered when scheduling a procedure, which caused problems with billing for certain procedures that require a certain diagnosis order. From now on, the codes will be arranged just as entered initially!

For example, here’s a case that was coded via Processing:

When you open the billing information by double-clicking the case, you will see the exact same order of ICD-10 codes, meaning that it will be kept intact on your claims as well:

With the latest update, EMSOW can analyze DICOM images coming from Mindray M8 Elite machines and import the measurements using optical character recognition (OCR). The recognized measurements are automatically inserted into structured report template fields. More automation for your sonographers—even without native SR support!

[#20805] Added ability to use billing routes for eligibility

With this update, you can use a billing route to choose the necessary billing connector for checking eligibility. For example, if you deal with insurance carriers in different states, you may need to send your eligibility requests via different clearing houses (needless to say, EMSOW supports a wide range of those).

To use a billing route this way, double-click it and select the use for eligibility only checkbox:
