============================================================================= Run Date: JAN 04, 2021 Designation: WEBG*2*2 Package : WEBG - WEB VISTA REMOTE ACCESS MANA Priority: Mandatory Version : 2 SEQ #2 Status: Released Compliance Date: FEB 04, 2021 ============================================================================= Subject: WEBVRAM VERSION 2.04 EMERGENCY RELEASE Category: - Informational Description: ============ Deployment of Web VistA Remote Access (WebVRAM) Version 2.04 contains an emergency software update to address a production defect. The repair prevents the addition of duplicate Service/Section values in the VistA Service/Section File #49 when a WebVRAM user profile is created or updated at a remote site the user accesses through WebVRAM to perform VA-directed work. Prior to this release, File #49 was adding multiple identical entries of the WebVRAM user's Service/Section value. Other remote user "push" applications may continue to add multiple identical entries to File #49 since its data construct does not prevent duplicate entries, but WebVRAM will now check the existing values at File #49 at each site, and if the user Service/Section value being pushed already exists, WebVRAM will prevent that value from being added to the file.

ESD ticket # INC15090147 Problem: -------- Duplicate file entries in VistA File #49 (Service/Section) at Orlando were preventing inpatient radiology exams from being registered. The data construct of File 49 allows addition of duplicate values for Service/Section, contrary to VA FileMan policy. Also, a value of "MEDICAL SERVICE" is required for providers to access CPRS features at Northern California and San Francisco VAMCs, while the value that radiologists use at Orlando is "MEDICAL SERVICES". Some radiologists were selecting "MEDICAL SERVICE" which was preventing them from registering inpatient exams. A workaround was available to change the exam from inpatient to outpatient, which allowed it to be registered. Resolution: ----------- WebVRAM application code was modified as follows: When a VistA user profile is updated at a remote site by WebVRAM, the application compares the user's Service/Section value with the values in File 49, and if the value already exists, it does not write the value to the file. Test Sites: ----------- Testing was performed internally by the WebVRAM team as this was a critical production defect needing to be resolved ASAP.
