v1.13 Release

· 2 min read
Founder and CEO

Our January release is primarily filled with new capability preparation. We're building out the ability to load Rx data to the database. We're also working on our Extractor UI to dramatically reduce the time it takes to translated data files into the METL schema. And, we're building the METL domain specific language (DSL) to make it easier to handle contract repricing, accumulators, payment integrity, and more.

New features and improvements​

Preparation for new Rx data loading​

We've done a lot of work to prepare for loading prescription drug data to the database.

  • Extractor templates moving to the database
  • Rx Schema
    • rename Go struct fields
    • update DB schema

Jobs UI​

The Jobs UI has turned out to be an very helpful tool to easily view and troubleshoot load issues. We continue expanding and improving it with:

  • Enable searching for only failed jobs
  • Fix paging

Claims repricing workflow improvements​

Enable adding new claim status through API

Working on METL Domain Specific Language​

METL DSL MVP. This will unlock capabilities for contracts, accumulators, payment integrity and much more.

Enterprise tenant deployment​

We've enabled the METL web UI for our enterprise tenants.

Other various enhancements​

  • Switch to govalues/decimal. We now use this for all decimals instead of the previous decimal package we used which took much more memory.
  • Add member_canonical_id_chosen to views so we can take advantage of patient matching data
  • More line item categories for grouping for better reporting
  • Rename columns with "_id" that aren't key columns for clearer usage
  • Make patient matching more deterministic for better comparison and consistency
  • Use claim_number as the standard claim number instead of payer_claim_number for better clarity and consistency.

Testing and Deployment​

  • Automated Python package publishing via GitHub Actions
  • Fixes to make it easier to release Python package
