the external provider if the external provider has been deleted, this is not allowed previously, attempting to do so would result in an exception error being displayed this has been fixed by instead showing a clear error dialog in the external providers window, if the online directory option was selected and set to medical objects, the postal address shown in the lower part of the window didn’t show the provider's postcode this has been fixed financial & referral fixed an issue where the external provider in the referral field was not being updated in the billing view despite changes having been made when a referral is created, there is an option to "bill referral", which creates a quick bill to prepare the claim for the outgoing referral previously, if the "to external provider" field was later changed in that referral, the billing claim needed to be updated separately as a manual step this feature has been enhanced to remove the need for manually updating the billing claim forms a

displays the initial scan date details without requiring subsequent edits to trigger the update in the antenatal form – obstetric history panel, rows previously reordered automatically when a past date was entered and the user pressed tab or clicked away this behaviour has been updated so that the reordering now occurs only after the user saves the form the comment field behavior in antenatal form part 2, section 17 has been enhanced comments are now entered directly into the field without opening a separate window, and text wraps automatically to the next line when reaching the edge of the textbox, eliminating the need for manual line breaks or horizontal scrolling an issue was resolved where updates to ethnicity and indigenous identity in the alter patient screen were not reflected
