Multi Factor Authentication – Information Only
What have we done?
(Internal Reference D10-13387) Deployed in Release 263 to PS2 and PS3 sites
Introduction of Multi Factor Authentication using OneAdvanced Identity integration into the Docman platform. This allows organizations to enhance security via additional authentication through OneAdvanced's identity provider. MFA is not yet “switched on”, so sites cannot currently activate it after this release.

How will you benefit?
Organisation code will not need to be re-typed at every log in

Transferring SNOMED Data via Docman to Improve Coding Quality
We’re currently piloting this feature with Manchester. Once we’ve gathered feedback, we’ll roll it out more widely.
What have we done?
(Internal References DCMC-4786/DCMC-4789)
Docman connect have added new Onset Date field to the API. When SNOMED coded information is sent into Docman10, this date will automatically appear as the Event Date on the Task screen in Docman 10
Why have we done this?
Patient care relies on accurate information in GP records. Important details like diagnoses often come through hospital letters and discharge summaries, but they can be hard to spot and time-consuming to code.
Because of this, and differences in time, training, and resources across practices, important clinical information isn’t always added to GP records. Evidence shows that up to half of key clinical details can be missed, which means some patients don’t always get the follow-up care they need
How will you benefit?
This makes filing and coding faster and simpler. The correct date is already filled in, reducing manual effort and the risk of errors. Most importantly, it helps ensure important clinical information is captured properly, supporting better ongoing care for patients.
Details of the change
A new Onset Date field has been added to the API for SNOMED-coded data.
• When SNOMED-coded information is transferred into Docman 10, the Onset Date is automatically populated as the Event Date on the Task screen.
• This works for clinical information coming from hospital letters and discharge summaries.
• The feature is currently being piloted with selective practices, with plans for wider rollout following feedback
