Vaper: finding and backing up your database

Posted on October 20, 2011 by in General, Tips

Even though your patient records are backed up to your PC every time you ‘sync’ to iTunes, you weren’t able to easily see the database file (as it was encrypted and stored within iTunes’ own backup system).

Until now.  From Vaper 1.1.6 onwards, you can now access your database file:

Connect your iPhone to your PC/iTunes and sync.  Then:
  1. Single click your iPhone, under ‘Devices’ in the iTunes window
  2. Select ‘Apps’ on the menu towards the top of the iTunes window
  3. Select ‘Vaper’ under Apps towards the bottom of the iTunes window
  4. Your database is in the ‘Vaper Documents’ window
You can now drag the database from the ‘Vaper Documents’ window and store it in a safe place on your computer.  This file can be reloaded on any other iOS device that has Vaper installed on it.  Or just store it for extra security.

Pocket MBS/RVG: fee sorting

Posted on February 18, 2011 by in Tips

When viewing item numbers in a particular group (eg Professional Attendances -> Other Non-referred), touch the ‘fee sort‘ button – top right of the navigation bar – to sort the item numbers by fee, with the highest fees at the top of the list.  Then scroll down from the top to find the first appropriate item for the service you are providing.  This will automatically be the highest fee.
