FYDO Hospital Update – 19/06/2025
Patient Alerts Features
FYDO has introduced several enhancements to the Patient Alerts system. First one being, the alerts are now colour-coded by department for easier identification:
- Orange for Admin
- Red for Clinical
- Purple for Post
Additionally, a new filtering option has been added. FYDO now allows you to filter patient alerts by department using the drop-down menu located in the top right-hand corner of the screen. Alerts are configured in Pre-Admit to automatically route them to the appropriate department.
The enhance usability, the Patient Alerts system now includes advanced filtering capabilities. By using the Filter button located at the top right-hand corner, you can narrow down alerts to view those associated with a specific doctor and/or a particular date, making it easier to manage and review relevant information efficiently.
Another enhancement within Pre-Admit is the ability to mark alerts as not only Completed or Incomplete but now Deleted. These actions are controlled through User Group Settings, allowing administrators to assign permissions for who can manage alert statuses.
Please reach out to one of our team if you’d like more information on setting up or utilising the Patient Alerts for your facility!
New Report
FYDO has introduced a new report titled Medical Record Retention, designed to assist in identifying which patient records may be eligible for culling within a specified date range. The report automatically identifies patients who have been last seen during the selected date range, with the ‘Last Seen From’ field defaulting to 20 years prior.
As retention requirements vary by state, particularly in how a “Minor” is defined (e.g., age 16 in some states, 18 in others) you can now select the appropriate Definition of Minor Age to align with local regulations.
Please note: This report is for identification purposes only. The report will display episodes eligible for culling; however, no medical record charts will be archived automatically. The chart status must be updated manually at this stage. Development is currently underway on the next phase of this feature, which will introduce an automatic archiving functionality.
Minimum Benefits Improvement
Another improvement implemented by FYDO is the ability to Move Current Fees to Old Fees within Settings > Minimum Benefits > In Overnight Accommodation. This enhancement streamlines the process, eliminating the need to manually enter each fee individually and significantly improving efficiency and reducing administrative workload
Bulk SMS Additions
FYDO has enhanced the Bulk SMS screen by adding two new columns: Doctor/Surgeon and Health Fund Code. These additions provide greater clarity and improve targeting for patient communications
