Updates & Fixes 

• IRIS Metric Weighting Improvements. Currently, all IRIS metrics are currently weighed equally, but certain IRIS metrics are more indicative of diversion concerns and should have more weight when determining a user’s IRIS score.

IRIS metric weights will be increased for 3 metrics (Med Trends, Variance Trends, and Full Package Waste), which aim to decrease false positive IRIS reviews and highlight more anomalous IRIS users to improve identification of risky behaviors that are more suggestive of diversion concern. This will be applied to both Nursing and OR Care Areas.

• Account Management - Disable Row of Logged-In User. This update prevents a logged-in user from changing their own account permissions and security roles.
• Inconsistent date filter behavior (seen in Waste Networks). Fixed issue where the date filter on the Waste Network IRIS metric page is not respected after navigating to the metric page from the IRIS Detailed Side Panel.
• Convert Cancelled Transaction Times to the hospital settings time zone. Fixed an issue where the detailed transaction report for canceled events shows the event times in UTC, instead of the hospital’s time zone.
