OHM 7.6 Release Notes (Rev. 7-25-14) Page 4
OHM 7.6 builds on important features added in OHM 7.5. Highlights of some important features in OHM 7.6 are described here.
ICD-10 Coding
The International Classification of Diseases, 10th Edition (ICD-10) diagnosis and procedure codes become effective
October 2015. OHM 7.6 accommodates the additional length of ICD-10 codes. During the transition time leading up to
October 2015, you can still use the existing ICD-9 codes by filtering on the ICD version.
MSDS to SDS
OSHA recently adopted a new Hazard Communication Standards that requires using new labeling elements and a standardized format for Safety Data Sheets (SDSs), formerly known as Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDSs). OHM 7.6
replaces the MSDS module title on all associated screen names in one step from System Settings > Module Titles. New relabeling options have been added for hazard labels and NFPA labels in Safety > MSDS > Options. OSHA is phasing in the revised requirements between December 1, 2013 to June 1, 2016. See https://www.osha.gov/dsg/hazcom/ for details.
Supervisor Portal
The Health Portal now includes a compliance accountability component called the Supervisor Portal. OHM SaaS customers who upgrade to OHM 7.6 have the option of implementing the Health Portal with this new component. The Supervisor
Portal provides a single point of access for clinic-related activity (making appointments, tracking required exams and training, following compliance ratings, and automated reporting). The Health Portal is an integrated implementation that adds supervisor, recruiter, and human resource access to the PureSafety product (7.0 and above) for safety-related activity
(taking required training, reporting workplace hazards, and reporting injuries).
My Query Tool
The My Queries utility has been substantially redesigned to create, edit, share custom queries, and save to your favorites.
The standard queries still exist, but now you can create queries to meet your specific needs and share them with one or more users, groups, or to all users. You can preview a query and export the results to Microsoft Excel. This tool provides flexible instant reporting when you need it most.
Recalc Due Dates Utility
Our research and development team performed defect analysis and cross referenced custom development changes to identify areas that needed improvement. This process redesign has improved the performance and reliability of the Recalc
Due Dates utility. We encourage you to try it for yourself.
Upload Archive File Tool
The Upload Archived File tool is more user friendly and now imports data from versions prior to OHM 7.4. A new employee key was added in OHM 7.4 to reduce the instances of some records pointing to the wrong employee. For example, when the same SSN was assigned to different employees. Once this key was in place, archived records could not be imported from a previous version into OHM 7.4 or 7.5.
Password Security
New password rules and features to help you implement a stronger password policy is now available. Passwords are now case sensitive and allow spaces that are considered characters, which allows users to create pass phrases.
Consent Forms
• Create new or revised consent forms by duplicating an existing form
OHM 7.6 Release Notes (Rev. 7-25-14) Page 5
• Preview consent forms while editing or creating a new form
• Reorder consent form sections dynamically
• Search for custom consent forms in Demographics or Encounters consent form grids
Report Improvements
Reports with multi-page parameter options have been redesigned with a tabular look. Each tab provides different options such as filters, additional filters, or print options. Organizing the options into individual tabs makes it easier to find the options you need without having to scroll through numerous filter options.
Report descriptions are available for select reports and are available by clicking Show Report Description on the report parameter screen.
Report code and revision date now display at the bottom of reports in preview mode. This provides customer support with vital information when identifying issues.
Advanced Grids Changes
• Screens converted to Advanced Grids:
• Injury/Illness listing
• Corrective Action listing
• Date Safety Closed Investigation added as a column option to Accident Investigation grid
• Filter records on a date range for a specific date field
Other Important Changes:
• OHM Mobile Vaccination App now works with LDAP authentication
• Working interface for the Jones Satellite spirometer
• A new IGRA Types table is now available in the Vaccination module
• It is now easier to access the vaccination mobile application URL as it is now the same as the URL used to access
OHM
OHM 7.6 Release Notes (Rev. 7-25-14) Page 6
The Health Portal is at the heart of the new features. Employee information is synchronized between the systems which allows the Portal to be a single point of access for clinic-related activity (making appointments online, completing forms before an office visit, viewing medical records) and safety-related activity (taking required training, reporting workplace hazards, viewing diplomas or certifications). A complete integration of all products facilitates collaboration between health and safety professionals by reducing duplicate data entry of employee and injury (case) information.
The Portal Home Page is the starting point for all employees. Employees see appropriate information in a consistent, easily-navigated home page. You can seamlessly increase or decrease user permissions and implement different integration components over time with little to no employee training.
OHM SaaS customers who have licensed the Health Portal save time and phone calls by allowing employees to manage their own appointments using the Employee Portal features. These features include allowing employees to complete consent forms and questionnaires online before they arrive for their appointment. They can also review their own medical record or office visits without calling the clinic.
The Supervisor Portal is a component of the Health Portal that allows supervisors access to details about the employees who report to the supervisor such as surveillance compliance, surveillance due information, notifications, mask fit results, restrictions, and accommodations. Supervisors can also schedule appointments on behalf of their employees.
Access control over who can view specific OHM information is managed by permissions that are assigned to an individual or to levels of the hierarchy. This flexible permission structure allows you to shape supervisor access to suit your organization.
Security. Employees are required to maintain a strong portal password as part of an overall security structure that includes encrypted databases and complete auditing of PHI (protected health information).
OHM 7.6 Release Notes (Rev. 7-25-14) Page 7

You can maximize the benefits by using a full integration of all products. Your licensed products, implementation settings,
OHM security, and PureSafety security determine exactly what employees can see and do.
Contact your client development manager at ulworkplacesales@ul.com or 888.202.3016 to inquire about licensing the various components of the OHM, PureSafety, and IMS integration.
OHM 7.6 Release Notes (Rev. 7-25-14) Page 8
Export and Import. You can use the Upload External Archive Tool to move employees from one database/account to another where the archived data is from a version prior to OHM 7.4. This is a resolved issue where the Archive > Export and Import feature was only able to be used within the same database/account for OHM 7.4 and OHM 7.5.
Document Directory Account Configuration. You must have separate document directory locations when you have multiple account databases or your documents could be overwritten.

Licensing System
As of OHM 7.4, a new account licensing system is available. During the upgrade process, relicensing is required. This does not affect enabled modules, user counts, or other aspects of your license. The new licensing system is behind the scenes but will require staff performing the upgrade to license the product using the new system. Alerts are provided to users regarding license limits such as registration issues, license expiration, user limits.
Employee Key Refactoring and Implications for Reports, Imports, and Upgrading
NOTE: This feature was made available in OHM 7.4. If you are upgrading from 7.4 or above, you do not need to do this again.
The unique employee key is the primary link used by the OHM database to link an employee's records that exist in different tables. Over time, some tables in OHM were linked to the employee using different fields, such as SSN or Employee ID, that are not guaranteed to be unique. The refactoring work identified all such scenarios and replaced them with a link to the unique primary employee key. This was an important and substantial undertaking that strengthens the database and greatly
OHM 7.6 Release Notes (Rev. 7-25-14) Page 9
reduces instances where some records may point to the wrong employee when, for example, the same SSN is assigned to different employees. Much of this takes place behind the scenes.
Standard reports affected by these changes were updated and verified. Custom reports must be verified before upgrading to identify links that require replacing links that use the non-unique employee ID to the employee primary key.
During the upgrade process, records that have ambiguous links are identified and must be manually resolved. See
Employee Key Refactoring for additional details.
Auditing for Tables or Fields
Some tables or fields have been removed from the database in OHM 7.6. Download a list of deleted tables and fields from the Customer Resource Center in OHM 7.6 User Documents > Technical Reference Documents > OHM Database
Changes (Schema).pdf.
If fields or tables that you audit are deleted in OHM 7.6, you must reset auditing before you upgrade. See
Auditing for Database Tables and Fields
for instructions on resetting audits. Resetting audits before upgrading prepares your database by removing triggers that include fields or tables that will not exist after upgrading to OHM 7.6. If this is not done before upgrading, the triggers will attempt to audit fields or tables that no longer exist and you will receive a "Go to
Dashboard" message.
OHM 7.6 Release Notes (Rev. 7-25-14) Page 10
The unique employee key is the primary link used by the OHM database to link an employee's records that exist in different tables. Over time, some tables in OHM were linked to the employee using different fields, such as SSN or Employee ID, that are not guaranteed to be unique. The refactoring work (made available in OHM 7.4) identified all such scenarios and replaced them with a link to the unique primary employee key.
The employee key refactoring was an important and substantial undertaking that strengthens the database and virtually eliminates instances where some records may point to the wrong employee when, for example, the same SSN is assigned to different employees. Organizations that currently allow or have previously allowed duplicate SSNs or IDs, may have been affected by the issues fixed by the employee refactoring. These organizations can continue to allow duplicate SSNs or IDs without the issue they may previously have experienced.
Employee Selection Using the Person Icon
In conjunction with the refactoring work is a change in the behavior of the employee lookup throughout OHM where the person icon is shown to the right of a field. This change is necessary to enforce the primary link relationship for all employee-related tables. For example, the Supervisor field on the Employee
Demographics screen and the ID field in the
User Security may display the person icon shown in the image below. This person icon is also used in report parameters where this lookup exists.
Prior to OHM 7.4, clicking the icon opened a page with fields similar to the list search that provided options for filtering the search. Now a window opens with the list of employees and an expanded filtering capability available with the advanced grid. There are a few exceptions such as Case Management, Case Master List, and Death Certificate where the previous style of employee search and select is still used.
The first time the employee lookup is used, all records are returned. The advanced grid lets users define the columns to display and the column order. You can filter by multiple displayed columns by selecting the drop down arrow for the column heading, and defining the filter. By default, only active records are displayed. You can display inactive records by adding the Active column to the grid and using the drop-down arrow on the Active column to check the Include Inactive check box. Each person's column configuration is unique for that individual and remains in effect for the employee lookup until it's changed.
The filters reduce the number of records that are returned in the grid. After filtering the results, use the search field to look for records containing the text you type in the search field. The Search Former Name check box extends the search to the last names in the work history records. It always appears on the search window and is unaffected by the
Demographics Options setting "Former Name on Search and List."
The word Code is added to the labels of fields where only the code is displayed. This makes it clear that the code is shown in the grid rather than the description. If you have relabeled such a field and included the word Code in your label, you will see the word Code displayed twice. In addition, if you have configured OHM so the second employee ID is not used, it will not appear in the list of columns.
The refactoring also affected other areas of OHM where ambiguous links may have existed. Each area has been methodically addressed and is described below.
OHM 7.6 Release Notes (Rev. 7-25-14) Page 11
Archiving
The employee key refactoring was also applied to the archive and unarchive processes as well as to records that were archived before OHM 7.4. Users should experience no change to the archiving process.
Imports
Each import format must be opened and reviewed to identify whether the import used any of the tables or fields that were refactored. A list of the tables and fields that were affected by the employee refactoring is available from Customer Support.
The most common field affected by this change is the Supervisor. The supervisor field in imports is affected in only one scenario related to the following settings in the Demographics > Options > Defaults :
• If A is unchecked and B is checked, the supervisor’s name was obtained by linking to their employee ID or SSN in the EMPLOYEE.SUPER field. You must change the import to use the new record number as it relates to the ID you use: (SUPEMPID:EMPLOYEE.ID if using the ID or SUPEMPID:EMPLOYEE.SSN if using the SSN).
NOTE: You should not allow duplicate IDs or SSNs when using these as the primary employee identifier. If you allow duplicates and one is founf, the import will select the first record that matches.
• If A and B are unchecked, you are using a lookup to the list of supervisors in the company’s Supervisor table. The supervisor field in imports is unaffected and you can continue to use the SUPER field as before.
• If A is checked and B is unchecked, plain text is used for the supervisor’s name (SUPRNAME). The supervisor field in imports is unaffected.
Prior to OHM 7.4, an import that involved the tables that were refactored may have selected the wrong employee record if multiple employees had the same SSN or ID. This situation may still occur, however, now an entry in the import log identifies the record that was selected due to the import's inability to identify which of the employees with the same SSN/ID should have been selected.
The employee selection on the transfer pages of data imports from audiometers, spirometers, labs, ECG, and titmus now use the person icon as shown in the image above. The screen also displays the ID or SSN, and the last name and first name (in a single field).
Reports
Standard reports affected by these changes were updated and verified. Custom reports must be verified before upgrading to identify links that require replacing links that use the non-unique employee ID to the employee primary key.
A separate document is available from Customer Support that lists all the tables and fields that were affected by the employee refactoring to help with handling custom reports or utilities.
Data Migration
Records that have ambiguous links are identified and must be manually resolved prior to upgrading. A migration tool provides complete details to aid in the accurate and efficient resolution of the ambiguous records. Implementation and customer support staff will provide full details on the migration tool.
OHM 7.6 Release Notes (Rev. 7-25-14) Page 12
This topic provides instructions on how to remove the database tables and fields from auditing. This may be necessary when some tables or fields have been removed from the database, and you are preparing to upgrade.
Pre-requisites:
• You have already activated database tables and fields.
• You must have the security level Setup - Audit Log Setup to perform the instructions described on this page.
Considerations:
• Removing audits before upgrading prepares your database by removing triggers that include fields or tables that will not exist after upgrading to a newer version. If this is not done before upgrading, the triggers will attempt to audit fields or tables that no longer exist.
• Creating all database triggers at the same time is NOT recommended as this is run inside OHM and could significantly slow down the system. Check with your system administrator before either of these methods:
• Run the SQL Script and Create All of the Database Audit Triggers
• Retrieve the SQL Script Used to Create All of the Database Triggers

Enhancements
Summary
It is now easier to change the
MSDS screen labels when you are ready to adopt the new standard.
Detail
As a result of OSHA recently adopting new Hazard Communication Standards that changed the wording of Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) to Safety Data Sheet
(SDS), OHM changed the way the MSDS Module Title relabeling affects OHM. The
Standard, being revised to align with the United Nations' Globally Harmonized
System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals, will be fully implemented in
2016.
Under System Settings > Options > Module Titles Tab > Label you can change the label for the modules as they display at the top of the left menu only. An exception was made for MSDS in that when you change the MSDS module name,
MSDS changes to the new title on all associated screen names. All other Module
Title label changes remain the same.
Additionally, you can change the hazard labels and NFPA labels in Safety > MSDS
> Options.

The ICD Table now accepts ICD-9 and ICD-10 codes. To accommodate for both codes, an ICD version drop-down field has been added to the ICD table.
Setting ICD Version
Injury & Illness > Case Management Tables > ICD Codes or
Medical> Encounter Log > Tables > ICD Codes
The image below shows the new ICD Version field on the ICD Codes table screen.
Best Practice: It is important to select the correct ICD code set (ICD-9 or ICD-10) from the ICD version drop-down list. This will provide the accurate information later when used with the diagnosis. All other fields remain the same.
Using ICD Version
Use this new version option in other areas such as diagnosis to filter for the appropriate code.
The image below shows the new ICD version column from the ICD Code lookup field on the Diagnosis Table screen.
OHM 7.6 Release Notes (Rev. 7-25-14) Page 55
Best Practice: Filter by ICD code set (ICD-9 or ICD-10) when selecting ICD Codes or Diagnosis codes linked with ICD codes.
Syncronizing Diagnosis and ICD tables
A new option, Keep Diagnosis and ICD tables in sync, is available in Case Management Options > Options screen. This option allows the system to keep the Diagnosis and ICD tables syncronized. This option was formerly controlled by separate check boxes on two tables:
• Diagnosis table: "Keep this table in sync with the ICD table"
• ICD table: "Keep this table in sync with the Diagnosis table"
The image below shows an excerpt from the Case Management Options > Options screen highlighting the new check box.
NOTE: ICD Version is required on the Diagnosis table when this option is enabled. Update existing data in diagnosis or ICD tables with the ICD version before selecting this option.

The grid displays a complete list of all the queries in your database. The ones added to your favorites list display with a check mark in the Favorite column.
The function bar contains options to run, edit and copy the selected query. You can edit queries that you have created or copied. Queries created by others can be edited if the author selected the "Allow other users to edit this query" option.
A preview of the query containing limited data displays at the bottom of the screen. Click Run to see the full query results. Additional filtering or sorting can be performed only on full query results.
Best Practices
Use the Dashboard queries to find records that require immediate follow-up without having to run a full report. Once you have identified an area that needs attention, you can double click on an area of the query that links to target data. For example, when you run the Employees on Restricted Duty query, you can click on an employee’s name to view employee details or on a restriction to view restriction details and you can make changes, as necessary.
New/Updated Option Settings
There are no new or updated option settings that control the behavior of the Manage Query Tool or other elements of
Dashboard Queries.

As a result of OSHA recently adopting new Hazard Communication Standards that changed the wording of Material Safety
Data Sheet (MSDS) to Safety Data Sheet (SDS), OHM changed the way the MSDS Module Title relabeling affects OHM.
The Standard, being revised to align with the United Nations' Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of
Chemicals, will be fully implemented in 2016.
When you change the MSDS module name in System Settings > Module Titles , the system replaces MSDS on all associated screen names to the new title including the system settings screen. All other Module Title label changes remain the same.

v7.6
Comments
If fields or tables that you audit are deleted in OHM 7.6, you must reset auditing before you upgrade. See
Deactivate Auditing for Database Tables and Fields
for instructions on resetting audits. Resetting audits before upgrading prepares your database by removing triggers that include fields or tables that will not exist after upgrading to OHM 7.6. If this is not done before upgrading, the triggers will attempt to audit fields or tables that no longer exist and you will receive a "Go to Dashboard" message.
Contact OHM Customer Support at 800.332.8089 if you need further assistance.
OHM does not support Microsoft Office Open XML document types. For example .docx, .xlsx, .pptx. A system message displays when you attempt to upload a file of this type.
NOTE: The system message does not display in Case
Management or Medical Surveillance for OHM 7.5.2 and
