$TXT Created by ANTRY,MIKE at DEVCUR.ISC-SLC.VA.GOV (KIDS) on WEDNESDAY, 12/20/00 at 12:10 ============================================================================= Run Date: DEC 26, 2000 Designation: GMRC*3*18 Package : GMRC - CONSULT/REQUEST TRACKING Priority: Mandatory Version : 3 SEQ #16 Status: Released ============================================================================= Associated patches: (v)GMRC*3*8 <<= must be installed BEFORE `GMRC*3*18' (v)GMRC*3*12 <<= must be installed BEFORE `GMRC*3*18' (v)OR*3*88 <<= must be installed BEFORE `GMRC*3*18' Subject: Update Notifications, Add Parameter Lookup, Edit/Resubmit Category: - Routine - Enhancement (Mandatory) - Other Description: ============ This patch provides the following nine changes to the Consult/Request Tracking System: 1. Change Notification Alerts. 2. Add date & time to Hierarchy report. 3. Allow Editing and Resubmitting of a Canceled Consult from the Consults tab. 4. New parameter to vary the number of days to search backwards for pending consults when linking a Progress Note to a consult from the Notes tab. Data is being sent to update the PARAMETER DEFINITION file (8989.51). 5. Corrects an "undefined variable" when listing the Hierarchy. 6. Adds an Identifier to the SERVICE/SPECIALTY field. A new "ID" node is being added to the DD for the REQUEST SERVICES file (#123.5). 7. List Manager version will pull the same Eligibility field PRIMARY ELIGIBILITY as the GUI instead of the TYPE OF PATIENT field. 8. Added SCHEDULED consults in the GROUP UPDATE selection list of the CONSULT MANAGEMENT menu. 9. An array will be passed to CPRS GUI v15. The array will consist of Consult synonyms. Changes to the CPRS GUI interace will appear when OR*3*85 (CPRS GUI version 15) is installed. Change 1. NOTIFICATION ALERT CHANGE. ---------------------------------- Patch OR*3*88 installed a new type notification, #63, CONSULT/REQUEST UPDATED. GMRC*3*18 includes the code to begin sending this alert instead of #27, NEW SERVICE CONSULT/REQUEST, when the add comment or the schedule consult actions are performed. Consults manipulates the text string to be appropriate to the action taken, then sends alert number #63 CONSULT/REQUEST UPDATED, to CPRS along with appropriate alert text. The alert text then shows as follows: Adding a Comment : "Comment Added to Consult: . . ." Scheduling: "Scheduled Consult: . . ." The notification is exported as DISABLED and the deletion parameter set to "Individual Recipient" . These parameters will have to be changed by the Clinical Coordinator or IRM as necessary to invoke the new notification using the "XPAR MENU" tools. Change 2. LIST CONSULT SERVICE HIERARCHY Report (LH). --------------------------------------------------- NOIS PUG-0800-52632 requested the run date and time to be placed in the report heading line. Change 3. EDITING and RESUBMITTING OF A CANCELED CONSULT. --------------------------------------------------------- NOIS MAC-0600-61490, ANC-0800-50477 and E3R 13711 described problems of not being able to edit and resubmit a canceled consult if not done through the alert. A new protocol [GMRCACT EDIT/RESUBMIT CONSULT] has been added to patch 18 that allows the provider or update user to edit and resubmit a canceled consult through the Consult Service Tracking [GMRC SERVICE TRACKING] option. This is a departure from previous practice which only allowed these actions when responding to a Canceled Consult Alert. Currently this protocol only works in List Manager mode. Version 15 of the CPRS GUI will allow the provider or update user to edit/resubmit a canceled consult. Change 4. NEW PARAMETER. ---------------------- NOIS BIR-1000-32052, LAS-1000-61120, DUB-0799-31375. When completing consults from the Notes tab, after selecting a title, you are given a list of consults to which the note may be linked. This list is currently limited to consults entered in the last 365 days. The new parameter "GMRC CONSULT LIST DAYS" will allow sites to vary this value at the System level or by Divisions. The default parameter, set at the package level, is set to 365 days. Clinical coordinators or IRM will update this variable as needed. Change 5. UNDEFINED VARIABLE. --------------------------- NOIS CPH-0900-40764. The installation of patch GMRC*3*16 uncovered a problem with errant cross references in the REQUEST SERVICES file (#123.5). The error that appears at PROC+5^GMRCASV is corrected by this patch. Change 6. CONSULT SERVICE IDENTIFIER. ----------------------------------- NOIS PUG-0600-50119. To assist users when selecting a "SERVICE/SPECIALTY" an IDENTIFIER field has been added". The SERVICE USAGE field (Grouper, Tracker Only) will appear next to the "SERVICE/SPECIALTY" name. A post install routine (GMRCYP18) will update the data dictionary. The post install routine will be deleted at the end of the KIDs installation. Change 7. CONSULT ELIGIBILITY FIELD. ---------------------------------- NOIS DUR-0700-31266. In the List Manager (LM) version of Consults it was noticed that the patient eligibility was being filled in at the time the consult was placed. The problem is that patient eligibility could change by the time the consult was being acted upon. The eligibility being used by the CPRS GUI cover sheet is the PRIMARY ELIGIBILITY field [DPT(2) field .361]. LM has been using the TYPE OF PATIENT field [DIC(8) field 5]. LM has been changed to use the PRIMARY ELIGIBILITY field. Change 8. GROUP UPDATE "SCHEDULED" CONSULTS. --------------------------------- NOIS PUG-0800-52633 and E3R 14985. The List Manager option Consult Management [GMRC MGR] and the option Group update of consult/procedure requests [GMRCSTSU] have had three enhancements added: 1) the selection of "PENDING or ACTIVE" consults has been changed to include "SCHEDULED"; 2) when adding a comment from the group update option it will now use the Word Processing edit function instead of a line editor; and 3) when using the "Print report & update records" option a response (Y/N) to stop or continue with updating the selected consults has been added between printing the report and updating the records. Change 9. Consult Synonyms. ------------------------- NOIS-BIR-1299-30420. A routine has been developed (GMRCASV1) that will provide a list of Consult synonyms for selection from the CPRS GUI interface. This functionality will be provided by patch OR*3*85 (CPRS GUI version 15).
