Summary by Persona (Grouped by Role)


👩‍⚕️ Clinicians / Therapists

  • Therapists will see custom form dropdowns behave correctly on finished notes, and OT/PT therapists will get suggested billing units with reminders when units and minutes do not align with the eight minute rule.


🧑‍💼 Admins

  • Admins will see corrected dropdown behavior on custom forms, including fields that are set to hide when empty.


💳 Billers / Guardians

  • Billers: OT/PT billing windows now suggest units based on session time and flag when units and minutes do not line up with the eight minute rule.

  • Guardians/Patients: No direct changes.

🛠️ Fix - Custom Form Dropdowns Display Correctly


👥 Audience: Therapists, Admins

📅 Date range affected: Forms saved since May 2025

❗ Issue: On a custom form, a dropdown set to hide when empty still appeared on the finished note, and a dropdown with a default option did not open on that option.

✅ Action Steps: None. Existing forms pick this up on their own. Worth knowing: if one of your dropdowns has a default option and is set to hide when empty, that field will now be left off the finished note when it is left on the default.

🚀 New Feature - OT/PT Billing Suggests Units Based on Session Time


👥 Audience: OT and PT therapists

🛠️ Steps to Access: Open the billing window on an occupational or physical therapy visit note

📢 What's new?: For occupational and physical therapy visit notes, the billing window now suggests the number of units based on the session time and shows a helpful reminder when the units and minutes don't line up, based on the eight minute rule.
