Software Update for Clinical Audit and/or Contract Manager in Wales
There is now a software patch available for your Clinical Audit and/or Contract Manager software.
Please note this version requires version 3.1.8f to function correctly.
This patch contains a complete revision of all reports supporting the nGMS Contract Quality and Outcomes Framework Logical Indicator Specification.
These reports have passed the ‘Pre-conformance’ testing by the National Programme for IT for all iSOFT products. This is part of the overall accreditation process for GMS Quality and Outcomes Framework reporting tools.
This is a large update to your software and in order for the new rules and read codes to be picked up your databases will be emptied and you will have to run a new audit.
