Below is a list of all the applications involved in this project along with their patch number: APPLICATION/VERSION PATCH --------------------------------------------------------------- OUTPATIENT PHARMACY (OP) V. 7.0 PSO*7*448 INTEGRATED BILLING (IB) V. 2.0 IB*2*550 ELECTRONIC CLAIMS MANAGEMENT ENGINE (ECME) V. 1.0 BPS*1*20 CONSOLIDATED MAIL OUTPATIENT PHARMACY (CMOP) V. 2.0 PSX*2*79 PHARMACY DATA MANAGEMENT (PDM) V. 1.0 PSS*1*192 All five of these patches are being released in the Kernel Installation and Distribution System (KIDS) multi-build distribution. KIDS multi-build name: BPS PSO IB PSX PSS BUNDLE 9.0 KIDS Host File name: BPS_1_20_PSO_IB_PSX_PSS.KID This specific patch contains the following functionality: --------------------------------------------------------- 1. Three new fields for ePharmacy billable assessment have been added to the Drug File (#50) which will be Yes/No fields: ePharmacy Billable (#84) ePharmacy Billable (TRICARE) (#85) ePharmacy Billable (CHAMPVA) (#86) The fields will be used in Integrated Billing to assess billable status for a prescription instead of basing assessment on the DEA, Special HDLG field. 2. A new field called Sensitive Diagnosis Drug (#87) has been added to the Drug File (#50) which will be a Yes/No field. The field is used in Integrated Billing to assess sensitive diagnosis status for a prescription instead of basing the assessment on the DEA, Special HDLG field. 3. The system option Drug Enter/Edit [PSS DRUG ENTER/EDIT] contains prompts to allow the user to enter the new ePharmacy data at the main level. 4. The help text references to "E" and "U" have been removed from the DEA, Special HDLG field, however, the user will still be able to enter "E" or "U". If the user enters an "E" or "U" in the DEA, Special HDLG field, a warning message is displayed indicating the values no longer have any ePharmacy impact and refer the user to the new fields which replace the "E" and "U" functionality. 5. The option Lookup into Dispense Drug File [PSS LOOK] displays the following new ePharmacy values: ePharmacy Billable ePharmacy Billable (TRICARE) ePharmacy Billable (CHAMPVA) Sensitive Diagnosis Drug 6. During the patch installation, the system populates the ePharmacy Billable field according to existing logic based on values in the DEA, Special HDLG field, and removes the "E" from the DEA, Special HDLG field. Also, the system populates the Sensitive Diagnosis Drug field to Yes if the DEA, Special HDLG field contains "U" and removes the "U" from the DEA, Special HDLG field. 7. The system generates one post installation report showing the value of the DEA Special HDLG field before the patch is installed and the value of the DEA Special HDLG field after the patch is installed and the "E" and "U" characters are removed. The functions of both characters have been replaced by the new DRUG file (#50) fields to maintain consistency throughout the VA. A drug will only be on the report if the value for the DEA Special HDLG field is changed for that drug. The report also displays drugs that do not have any value in the DEA Special Handling Field.
