Hi…
On Random testing after the recent chart label update, found out that Miscellaneous->Authorizations dont work anymore. on clicking authorization, it used to show a page saying “Authorization” as a link. Now nothing happens. In my test site, which is running the dev tip just previous to the chart label update, the authorization link is working fine. So I guess, there has been an issue with this update… BTW, what does this authorization do basically, never found it working miracles…
I remember looking into this a couple years back. That script actually was the default bottom frame script after login, which then was downgraded (replaced by messages frame) since it wasn’t doing much. There are several fields (billing, pnotes, transactions and forms) which have an authorized toggle. If these are set to 0 in other scripts, then they need to be “authorized”, which is done on this authorization. From what I recall when looking at this, there was minimal support, if any, in the other scripts to use this feature (hence everything is already “authorized”). The plan at some point is to integrate this into the Message module: http://www.open-emr.org/wiki/index.php/Active_Projects#Messages
