Improvements and new features

1. The writeoff/sold system is overhauled:
   • When a dispatch is written off, AngelTrack now sets the balance due to zero. Any unpaid monetary amount is thereafter reported as a writeoff amount.
   • Writeoffs, including sales to collections, are now automatically reflected in a special payment event of type "Writeoff" or "Sale to collections", as appropriate. AngelTrack keeps the special payment event updated to always reflect the written-off item's monetary amount, and will auto-delete the special payment event if a biller un-writes-off the item by pulling it back into the billing workflow.
   • These new special payment event records can be used to analyze your writeoffs and sales to collections, using the Payment Event Finder, or Report Builder.
   • The Line Items Report now shows written-off items (including sold items) as having a balance of zero, to match Report Builder.
   • The "Billing" tab of the Dispatch Edit page now visibly differentiates between a balance owing (for an unfinished receivable), versus an amount sold to collections or otherwise written off (for a finished receivable). Likewise for the monetary-amounts display on the Payment Event Add page.
   • The Invoice Aging Report no longer includes monetary amounts that are written-off or sold to collections.

2. AngelTrack is now integrated with Stryker LIFENET to import ECG-monitor data from LIFEPAK devices. To learn more, please see the Stryker LIFENET Integration Guide.
3. The clearinghouse uploader/downloader will now refrain from auto-posting EOBs which include any dispatch that has already been told to collections; instead, the EOB will be left for the biller to manually import, since it will be necessary to notify the collections agency about the payment.
4. The Special Handling Queue now appears as a billing dashboard.
5. The Express Invoicer now has an option for retail patients to inherit their residence facility's contract prices.
6. The dispatch board's progress indicators now show the vehicle type -- ambulance, fire truck, wheelchair van, or gurney van.
7. The Coding page has a new button at the bottom to save changes and create a single-claim batch for the dispatch.
8. Many fixes and improvements to the VectorCare integration.
9. Updated schematrons from AL, NE, and SC.
