Windows Kiosks - Authentication Header Requires Vendor Token

The Windows Kiosk API was updated to require the vendor token in the authentication header when using the PatientSecure Hub and Gateway components on Windows kiosks.

For more information, contact your Imprivata representative to obtain the Imprivata PatientSecure Windows Kiosk API Guide, v.2.0.

Patient Identifier API Tags Cannot Contain Spaces

PatientSecure EMR patient identifier API tags cannot have spaces in them when using the TCP/IP API. If such a tag does contain a space, a warning level log message is logged, indicating that an invalid character was used and that the patient identifier is excluded from the API response.

Linux Hub Compatibility

The PatientSecure Linux Hub has been updated to support several new features.

If your Linux Hub will connect to a PatientSecure 6.12 SP1 (or later) environment, you must update the Linux Hub to version 2.0.0.42. No other Linux Hub releases are compatible with a PatientSecure 6.12 SP1 or later environment.
