 REMEDY OVERVIEW:
 ================
 1. HD151482       -      Report requires info on FEE BASIS docs
  
 Problem
 -------
 Providers are listed on the Provider Summary report as Incomplete because
 they are missing service/section, specialty and subspecialty
 information.  However, non-VA providers do not have this information so
 these providers continue to appear on the report even though they are
 complete.
  
 Resolution
 ----------
 Modify the report logic so that non-VA provider records are not listed on
 the report as missing data.
  
 2. HD168976      -      Purge for Patient Demographics is not being triggered
  
 Problem
 -------
 The purge of Patient demographic data is triggered by running the option
 Retransmit Patient Demographic Data [PSU RETRANSMIT PATIENT DATA] in the
 PSU PBM Manager menu.  Since this option is not run very often, the purge
 is rarely run.
  
 Resolution
 ----------
 Move the trigger of the Patient demographic purge from the Retransmit
 Patient Demographic Data [PSU RETRANSMIT PATIENT DATA] option to the
 Manual Pharmacy Statistics [PSU PBM Manual] option and to the Automatic
 Pharmacy Statistics [PSU PBM Auto] option.  This will insure that the purge
 is run at minimum whenever the automatic reports are run.  Including the
 trigger in the manual option insures that the purge can be run at will.
  
 3. HD163046    -     provider class/subspecialty as missing data
  
 Problem
 -------
 Providers are listed on the monthly PBMPRO report as missing provider
 class where that data is present.
  
 Resolution
 ----------
 The report currently only checks for provider class abbreviation.
 Modified to check provider class name if the abbreviation does not exist.
  
 4. HD185666       -      Mapping a new Pharmacy Area of Use problem
  
 Problem
 -------
 <UNDEFINED> occurs when user enters a string-string at
  
         "Select the dispensing/procurement location:"
  
 prompt.
  
 Resolution
 ----------
 The input validation for this prompt compares input with possible
 entries.  However, the loop begins with a 0 so string-string entries slip
 through even though they're invalid. The validation was corrected.
  
  
 5. HD102999       -      PSB Report errors out
  
 Problem
 -------
 The Automatic Pharmacy Statistics [PSU PBM AUTO] report generated a <SUSBCRIPT>
 error condition.  Error condition was generated at HL7+6^PSUDEM1.  PSUSDT
 variable was NULL when trying to locate a second subscript in the global.  This
 error was created when the report was run before any monthly data was filed.
  
 Resolution
 ----------
 Modify routine PSUDEM1 to quit loop when PSUSDT variable is NULL.
  
  
 6. HD193055        -     Code will not work when no records to purge
  
 Problem
 -------
 This problem was uncovered in testing HD168976.  It is caused by multiple
 calls to the Automatic Pharmacy Statistics [PSU PBM AUTO] and Manual Pharmacy
 Statistics [PSU PBM MANUAL] menu options.
  
 In both the PSU PBM AUTO and PSU PBM MANUAL options, there is a call to a
 routine PSUCP3.  This routine purges all PSU temporary globals before
 starting the current process.  If an AUTO process is run and then a
 MANUAL process is executed before the AUTO process finishes, the purge in
 the MANUAL process will kill the temporary globals needed by the AUTO
 process and the AUTO process will fail.
  
 It was noted that two different flags exist in the extract routine to prevent
 concurrent execution. However, the extract could be started multiple times.
  
 Resolution
 ----------
 The ^XTMP global for the monthly report is built according to SACC
 standards and thus, unneeded copies of the global will be purged as part
 of the system wide purge process.  The local purge is not necessary so it
 was removed from both the AUTO and MANUAL options. A call to a clean up
 routine that killed the running flags before the job started was eliminated.
 The flags will only be killed after the extract finishes.
  
 The first time that option PSU PBM MANUAL is used (or PSU PBM AUTO is invoked)
 following installation of this patch will initiate the purge of patient
 demographics.  This may cause the option to hang for up to 5 minutes
 before the user prompts for the manual option appear.  Please allow the
 purge to complete.  The hang is not expected to occur in subsequent uses
 of the option, as large amounts of data older than 75 days will no longer
 have accumulated.
  
 TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION:
 ======================
 HD151482
 Add code in PROV^PSUSUM1 to ignore the record if there is a PERSON CLASS
 entry in the NEW PERSON file (#200)
  
 HD168976
 Remove the call to CLEAUP^PSUHL from routine PSURT1.  Add this call to
 MANUAL^PSUCP and AUTO^PSUCP.
  
 HD163046
 Added code to CLASS^PSUDEM4 to check for provider class name (^DD(7,.01))
 if the provider class abbrev. title (^DD(7,1)) does not exist.
  
 HD185666
 Modified MODHLP^PSUMAP0 input validation to start loop at NULL instead of 0.
  
 HD102999
 Changed HL7+6^PSUDEM1 to quit if PSUSDT variable is NULL:
  
    F S PSUSDT=$O(^PSUDEM("B",PSUSDT)) Q:PSUSDT="" Q:PSUSDT>PSUEDT D
  
 HD193055
 Change routine PSUCP and remove the calls to routine PSUCP3 in both the
 AUTO and MANUAL tags. Eliminated call to EXIT label from AUTO label.
 
 Documentation Retrieval:
 ========================
  The Pharmacy Benefits Management User Manual has been updated to reflect 
  a change in patch PSU*4*12 that moves the trigger of the Patient demographic
  purge from the Retransmit Patient Demographic Data option to the PSU PSM 
  Manual option and to the PSU PBM Auto option. 
  
  The revised Pharmacy Benefits Management User Manual is available on the
  ANONYMOUS.SOFTWARE directory at one of the following Office of
  Information (OI) Field Offices. This file needs to be retrieved in binary
  format.
   
  Sites may retrieve documentation in one of the following ways:
  
   (1) The preferred method is to FTP the files from
       download.vista.med.va.gov, which will transmit the files from the
       first available FTP server.
   
   (2) Sites may also elect to retrieve documentation directly from a
       specific server as follows:
   
                  Albany          ftp.fo-albany.med.va.gov
                  Hines           ftp.fo-hines.med.va.gov
