Updating the Day Surgery Module

Updates for the module are usually released for the financial year changeover.

Depending on what has been changed by the relevant reporting bodies, practices are not usually required to swap over to the new version on 1st July as many practices are still completing the previous year's reporting and have up to three months to complete the last month.

MedicalDirector Customer Service can assist practices in updating to the latest version but ultimately the practice is responsible for ensuring that the users are on the correct version.

MedicalDirector tests each version before releasing it, but users need to be aware that MedicalDirector does not create all datasets from scratch. Rather, these are obtained from authorised vendors and websites and might contain errors that are beyond MedicalDirector's control.
