Client too old message...

I have to agree with Anthony that there should be a better way to handle users upgrading their software.

Maybethe softwarecan automatically check for updates once a week/month.
I think it is a pretty serious issue to be blocked out if there didn't happen to be an update for 3 months or X amount of months for that matter, and I'm sure there are countless reasons why that may happen.

hmm, looks like it does already does notify updates...

Concerning insurance copays in the US, there is this nasty yearly deductible in Medicare, currently US$131.00. The patient has to pay this amount before Medicare will start paying the 80% of what it says a given visit should be worth. For instance, a level 4 visit is now US$85.00. A patient comes in, he has to pay $85, you have to bill Medicare, it will pay $0.00 but will subtract $85 from the yearly deductible. This transaction takes at least 14 days. In the meantime the patient goes to see another physician, for whatever reason, if he/she doesn't have a receipt showing the amount already paid, she has to pay $85.. If it's a visit with a consultant the patient will have to pay $131, for consults are worth more!

Otherwise, when the patient returns, say for another level 4 visit he has to pay you $46 (rest of deductible) plus 0.2*($85-$46)= $7.80... If you bill Medicare, 2 weeks later you will receive $31.20. If the level of the visit is low, BP check etc, this charade will persist for another visit. If Medicaid is the secondary you are royally scr...d, for it will pay less than 50% of the yearly deductible, thereafter it pays $0. Thus, you are working at 80% of Medicare allowed! The secondary insurance usually pays the patient's 20%
Should have stayed in chemistry, but I love what I do. Sucks!
