040126 Release Notes
BenAdmin – 2026 Medical Plans Added for All 50 States (Ideon Integration)
What was happening:
The Plan System Library only included medical plans for California. Admins supporting clients in other states had to manually create plans or use workarounds.
What changed:
The Plan System Library now includes 2026 medical plans for all U.S. states, sourced directly from Ideon.
Key improvements:
- Medical plans and rates are now available for all states.
- The Add Plan from System Library experience stays the same, with added flexibility.
- State filter now supports all 50 states and Washington, DC.
- Carrier options update based on the selected state.
- Rating areas are limited to valid options for each state.
- Plan fields are pre‑filled, with the ability to update eligibility and other details before saving.
Why this matters:
This greatly reduces manual work and setup errors while making it easier to support clients nationwide with accurate, up‑to‑date plan data.
Mobile App
Biometric Login (Face ID, Touch ID, Fingerprint)
What was happening:
Users had to enter their username and password each time they logged in or rely on autofill.
What changed:
Users can now log in using Face ID or Touch ID on iOS and fingerprint authentication on Android.
Why this matters:
Logging in is faster, easier, and more secure.
Benefits – Upload Insurance Card
What was happening:
Users could view benefit details but couldn’t store their insurance cards in the app.
What changed:
Users can now upload medical, dental, and vision insurance cards directly to their benefit plans.
Why this matters:
Insurance cards are easy to access anytime without needing a physical copy.
Benefits – Enhanced Plan Details
What was happening:
Plan details didn’t clearly show important cost information, like deductibles or service coverage.
What changed:
We added clearer cost and coverage details, including deductibles, services, and admin notes.
Why this matters:
Users can better understand their benefits and make more informed healthcare decisions.
Reduced Login Load Times
What was happening:
Login screens sometimes took up to 15 seconds to load.
What changed:
We streamlined the login process and reduced load times by about 50%.
Why this matters:
Users can access the mobile app faster and with less frustration.
Long Email Subdomains No Longer Block Registration or Login
What was happening:
Users with long email subdomains (for example, test@testuser.testuser.com) couldn’t register or log in.
What changed:
We increased the supported email subdomain length to match the web experience.
Why this matters:
Valid users can now register and log in without being blocked by email format limits.
Branding
Color Updates in Client Facing Applications
What was happening:
Most client facing screens still displayed colors from the previous brand, except for the left‑hand navigation.
What changed:
All client facing screens now use the updated Auris brand color palette.
Why this matters:
This is another important step in delivering a consistent Auris brand experience.
