Hi

 

Could I please reiterate the need for improvement to setting up new patients when it concerns a family of patients.  The process can be quite long when setting up a family for the first time.  Is it possible when completing one adult (or a child) to select a feature to add multiple other people on a pop up dialogue box which asks for just their NHS number, first name, last name, title and date of birth (with the tool automatically assuming that the address, mobile, email address will be the same for children as the primary account holder / parent?

 

Separately, I have mentioned this many times previously, but there remains a bug in Dentally when adding a family member to an existing account in the patient details screen, it copies across the parent’s email address but not the mobile phone number which doesnt make sense.  Please correct this because otherwise we have to keep switching screens.
