Overview​

This release introduces enhancements to User Type Management in OmegaAI to improve usability, administrative efficiency, and system consistency. With this update, User Types are no longer assigned directly on the User page; they are now managed through Roles, enabling centralised configuration and simplified user administration.

What’s New​

1. User Types Managed Through Roles​

What changed:​

User Types are now configured at the Role level instead of being assigned individually on the User page.

Benefit:​

This centralizes permission management and ensures consistent User Type configuration across all users assigned to the same role.

2. Simplified User Administration​

What changed:​

User management is now role-driven. When a Role is assigned to a user, the corresponding User Type configuration is automatically applied.

Benefit:​

This simplifies user administration by reducing manual setup and ensuring that users receive the correct permissions based on their assigned role.

3. Streamlined User Page​

What changed:​

The User Page no longer displays or allows editing of User Type fields. User configuration is now managed entirely through Roles.

Benefit:​

This provides a cleaner interface and reinforces a role-based approach to managing user permissions.

4. Automatic Migration for Existing Users​

What changed:​

Existing users are automatically migrated to the new role-based structure. Their current User Type settings are mapped to corresponding Roles during the migration process.

Benefit:​

Ensures a smooth transition to the new system without requiring manual updates to existing user accounts.

Important Notes​

• During migration, additional roles may be created automatically if duplicate User Type configurations existed. These roles may include suffixes such as “-1” or “-2.”
• Administrators should review these roles and remove or consolidate duplicates if necessary.
• All future User Type management must be performed through Role configuration, not through the User page.

Where to Find It​

Navigation path in the application:

Overview​

This release introduces enhancements to the OmegaAI Scheduler, focused on improving scheduling accuracy, usability, and workflow efficiency.

What’s New​

1. Time Display During Drag and Drop​

What changed:​

When dragging a study from the worklist to the scheduler, the exact time slot is displayed within each cell.

Benefit:​

This provides clearer visibility when selecting appointment times and reduces scheduling errors.

2. Modality Mismatch Indicator​

What changed:​

A validation indicator appears when there is a mismatch between the study modality and the healthcare service modality.

Benefit:​

This helps prevent incorrect scheduling and ensures studies are assigned to appropriate services.

3. Customizable Scheduler Time Intervals​

What changed:​

Scheduler intervals can now be configured to 5, 10, 15, or 30 minutes, providing greater flexibility to match scheduling needs.

Benefit:​

Administrators can adjust scheduling intervals to match clinical workflow requirements.

4. Quick View Options​

What changed:​

Users can quickly switch between Day, Week, and Month views directly from the scheduler interface.

Benefit:​

This improves visibility and allows faster navigation between scheduling views.

5. Reorder Healthcare Services with Drag and Drop​

What changed:​

Healthcare services can now be reordered using drag-and-drop within the scheduler.

Benefit:​

Users can personalize the scheduler layout for easier access to frequently used services.

Important Notes​

• These enhancements will be rolled out within one week of the release.

If a patient has previously booked an appointment, the associated organization details are automatically pre-filled during scheduling.

Benefit:​

Reduces repetitive data entry and speeds up the appointment booking process for returning patients.

Important Notes​

• Order Set availability for self-scheduling depends on the configuration by the imaging centre
• Patients can only select from configured and enabled Order Sets
• Patient Document Upload: Patients can continue to upload required documents (e.g., physician orders) within Blume; these remain accessible to imaging centres for review
• Integrated Patient Forms: Imaging centres can continue to enable forms for patients during the appointment request process to ensure complete and accurate information collection

Overview​

We are pleased to announce the Signed Report Trigger under the Operations Trigger Type in Workflow Automation (WFA). This new trigger automates post-report actions (e.g., distribution, notifications) immediately after a diagnostic report is finalized, effectively eliminating delays caused by asynchronous DICOM processing. This mainly improves support for customers who are using external reporting solutions, while adding more granular control over other report creation scenarios.

What's New​

Trigger Activation Scenarios​

What changed:​

The Signed Report Trigger could be activated when any of the following occurs:

1. A diagnostic report is uploaded as a final report via the Document Viewer (DV) GUI.
2. A report is received in OmegaAI through HL7 or FHIR integrations.
3. A Structured Report is ingested via DICOM ingestion through OmegaAI Link.
4. A final report (DICOM encapsulated) imported using the Import Feature.
5. A final report is created or saved in OmegaAI’s Document Viewer (DV), including Signed Amendments.

Note: Ensure that you add the appropriate conditions after the trigger to prevent the final sign-off from being activated when not required.

Benefit:​

Workflow Automation allows you to automate processes and tasks, increasing efficiency and reducing manual intervention. With the Signed Report Trigger, we’re taking another step toward streamlining your reporting workflow.

Important Notes​

• It is recommended to configure appropriate conditions with the trigger to avoid unintended execution • Original workflow execution depends on report finalization events across supported ingestion methods • Particularly beneficial for environments using external reporting solutions • Ensure conditions are configured to prevent unnecessary trigger activation
