Custom View Additions 

New fields are now available for display in the Appointment Screen Custom Views, including: 

• Patients Age 

• Surgical Assistant 

• Referring Doctor Details (from the Edit Appointment Screen) 

• Referral Date (highlighted in red if expired) 

Waitlist Feature 

FYDO now includes a Waitlist feature that facilities can use to maintain a list of patients waiting for an appointment time. This feature is particularly beneficial for clinics using FYDO but is also accessible for hospitals too! 

This Waitlist can be accessed from the Appointments Screen, allowing patients to be added along with details about the type of appointment they require. 

Details that can be logged include: 

• Priority Level of their appointment 

• Preferred Doctor 

• Available Days the patient can attend 

• Whether the patient already has a Future Appointment booked 

• Any Notes relating to the entry 

With Phase 1 of the Waitlist feature complete, keep an eye on these announcements for improvements to this feature! 

Casebase Fees Import 

Casebase Fees can now be imported directly from an Excel Spreadsheet. This fantastic time-saving feature simplifies the process of importing large, Casebase health fund contracts. 

Revenue Report 

A new Excel – Raw Data option is now available for the Revenue Report, enabling users to export revenue information Grouped by Episode.  

This export mirrors the standard Raw Data Extract but consolidates episodes with multiple invoices into a single line, displaying revenue at an episodic level.  

Please note: this option is only available when the report is generated by Discharge Date.  

New Invoice Override Feature – PHASE 2 

Building on Phase 1 of this feature release in FYDO Hospital Update – 14/11/2024 – FYDO Wiki, the Invoice Override function now impacts the Billing Status > Show Not Billed Only Report.  

Facilities that are unable to raise an invoice for certain episodes can now use the Invoice Override feature to exclude these episodes from the Show Not Billed Only report. For instructions on how to apply the Invoice Override function, please refer to the newsletter linked above.   

Episodes marked with Invoice Override will be excluded from the Billing Status > Show Not Billed Only Report by default. However, these episodes can still be viewed by unticking the Excludes Invoice Override checkbox.  

User Group Access Levels 

User Group settings have been revised to improve usability and workflow. The following access levels have been updated: 

• Appointments > Edit (Hospital) – Grants permission to edit hospital appointments 

• Hospital Episode > Remove Episode – Grants permission to remove/delete episodes 

Please ensure that these user groups are correctly set up for your facilities requirements.
