As the number of agencies using Therap expand, we are learning more and more about developmental disabilities services industry and improving our system in order to provide an efficient documentation solution, that complies with industry standards such as CCHIT and HIPAA. We hope you find the upgrades helpful and look forward to your feedback.

Its time for another release, which will take us to version 9.2 of Therap Applications. In this release there will be usability enhancements as well as new features like the support for Pre-Vocational Services in Habilitation Checklists for users from New York and support for the new HIPAA standard 5010 that will affect how agencies do billing. To learn more about the new standard, you can refer to this blog post on ASC X12 version 5010 compliance.

Conferences:
Our conferences are great opportunities to learn about the newer features and the updates first-hand. We are holding two in the coming month of December, one at Florida (Dec 6-7) and California (Dec 7-8).

The big one, is also near, the National Conference for Provider Administrators between Febraury 7-9, 2012. This is a chance to meet the majority of the Therap team, including all the support staff and a few of the chief developers, as well as other folks from the ID/DD industry. Apart from training sessions, there will be lots of discussions, feedback sessions, brainstorming and presentations from users. Learn more about the sessions, the schedule, and register online from this page.

We’ve also added an extra day for Government Administrators, which is February 6, where we’ll describe and discuss the part of the System for State and County officials in charge of administering and supervising ID/DD services in their regions.

The Medication History module of Therap Health Tracking maintains relevant information regarding an individual’s current and previous medications such as dosage, form, count, and frequency.

The module offers the flexible option for users to add multiple medications to a person’s Medication History by importing them from an Excel spreadsheet.

The procedure is simple – just select the Import from Excel link under the Medication History from the Health Tracking module. This will open the Medication History Excel Import page. Here you will find a link to a sample Excel file that you can use to upload your medications.

Now, download the Excel file and enter your medications on it. (Do not change the header cells on the spreadsheet.) Once you are done, just go ahead and attach it on the ‘File’ field.

All you need to do then, if to fill out the form and hit ‘import’.
