• We've redesigned the Organization Preference display!

The organization preferences are now organized into labeled tabs for Configurations, Compliance, Emails, Appointments (where applicable) and Audit. 
  • For more information, check out the Organization Settings article.  
• As part of the Organization Preference redesign, we're introducing the ability to configure program overrides for the Session to Sign threshold.

• With the new session to sign time threshold changes, we've added the ability to configure the late note threshold to no longer include weekends in the calculation. This can be configured at the whole organization level or within the program override also being introduced in this release. 
  • For more information, check out the Organization Settings article. 
• Introducing new functionality with configuration in the Organization Preference to hold Bells notes in Bells from syncing to the EHR for a period of time.

  • For more information, check out the Organization Settings article. 
• Updated the Call Masking functionality for the mobile application by introducing a new organization level preference in the web application to determine if the call masking capability is always on for users at the organization or controlled by the user in the mobile application.

• For myAvatar, added additional functionality to support future date/time notes in Bells. Bells allows cancelled status notes to be signed even when date/time on the note is in the future. This however is not supported in myAvatar so would cause a sync issue. Moving forward, when notes are signed in Bells that have a date/time that are in the future, the note will be held in Bells until after the session date/time has passed so it can successfully sync to myAvatar.

Bells Web App Release - 2024.01.04

Summary

• Introducing narrative mode custom note sections.
• For myAvatar and CT|One users, added the ability to filter to only the services that are available based on configuration for the group. 
• Enhanced the minimum level selection for the Goals section in progress notes.
• Assorted bug fixes.  

Custom Note Sections

• Introducing narrative mode custom note sections. This new type of custom note section allows users to write their progress notes that utilize custom note sections in a narrative way instead of the current form mode. Bells administrators can create custom note sections as narrative or forms. Narrative custom note sections show in an output format, so the user answers within the output and can see the narrative building real-time as they fill out their progress notes. Form custom note sections will follow the traditional question/answer format. 

Group Notes

• For myAvatar and CT|One users, added the ability to filter the Group Note services to only the services that are available for the note types based on what's configured for the group. There is a new toggle setting on the group note type editor to configure the filter. 

Progress Notes

• Enhanced the minimum level selection for the Goals section in progress notes to enable/disable checkboxes in the selection display based on the level configured for the note type. 

Feature

• Corrected drop-ins to no longer remove line breaks from the drop-in being used when included in the saved configuration.
