Winter Newsletter 2023
Posted on 1 December 2023
It’s officially winter and Santa will soon be here. So, we would like to wish all our users a Very Merry Christmas and a Prosperous New Year!
While you wait for presents from the big man, we’ve got a few offerings for you from everyone here at Optisoft HQ…
Optisoft Shortcuts
Continuing our series of shortcut videos, we have created more for you to help get the most out of Optisoft.NET. This time we focus on the Appointments module.
If you are not aware, we are creating a series of these shortcut eLearning videos which are available in the Community Hub.
The next video can be found here.
Document Scanning with QR code
A brand new feature in the latest release of Optisoft.NET is the ability to scan a document into a patients record using your phone and a QR code.
To help you get to grips with this new facility, we have created a video tutorial: Click Here to view.
eGOS Deadline
As reported in the last newsletter, PCSE have announced that they will no longer be accepting paper forms from January 1st 2024 and all claims must be submitted electronically.
If you have not yet linked Enterprise to the portal or set up the full integration in Optisoft.NET now is the time to make the move.
The support desk is ready to help on 0345 230 3450.
Send Christmas Messages
Do you wish to send Christmas greetings to your entire patient base but are unsure about the process? Optisoft has the solution!
We provide an affordable service for sending bulk text and email messages to your patients. Whether you want to reach all patients or target specific groups based on specific criteria, we can assist.
Contact our support desk at 0345 230 3450 to explore the available options. Alternatively, click this link.
Planned Development Work
The projects we are currently working on are:
Online appointment bookings – enabling patients to book directly into the Optisoft.NET appointment module. Following testing of our Alpha version, more work is needed to make it usable on a mobile device.
Direct Debits Module – providing the ability to collect regular payments and manage stock fulfilment for patents on a practice scheme. This new module is very close to being ready for testing.
If you have any other suggestions for changes and improvements, we would love to hear from you. Please post your ideas in our Forum in the Community Hub.
Community Hub
All the main eLearning videos have now been completed and can be found in the Community Hub. We will now start the process of amending the existing videos and keeping them up to date with all the latest software changes.
If you haven’t already, make sure you register on the Community Hub for all the free resources only available to Optisoft users.
