============================================================================= Run Date: MAY 13, 2003 Designation: IVM*2*76 Package : IVM - INCOME VERIFICATION MATCH Priority: EMERGENCY Version : 2 SEQ #63 Status: Released Compliance Date: MAY 16, 2003 ============================================================================= Associated patches: (v)IVM*2*58 <<= must be installed BEFORE `IVM*2*76' (v)IVM*2*77 <<= must be installed BEFORE `IVM*2*76' Subject: BAD ADDRESS INDICATOR Category: - Routine Description: ============ ********************************************************************* * * * NOTE: This patch has been assigned a compliance date of 5/16/03 * * * ********************************************************************* PROJECT OVERVIEW: ================= Post implementation functional issues with automatic address updating introduced with GMT phase I have occurred and made it desirable to implement a bad address indicator. This functionality is designed to help prevent the spread and corruption of VISTA databases with addresses that are known to be invalid or incorrect. It addresses several NOIS messages and an inquiry raised by the Patient Safety committee. The project addresses the following issues and requirements: 1. Known bad addresses must be identified and flagged so that they are prevented from updating the HEC or other VISTA databases. This process is to be performed manually by updating the Bad Address Indicator on known bad addresses. 2. Veterans with the Bad Address Indicator set, must not be mailed Means Test Renewal letters. Patients fitting this criteria will be identified in a bulletin transmitted to the EAS MT LETTERS mailgroup. 3. The veteran's permanent address associated with the Bad Address Indicator will NOT be shared with the HEC. 4. There have been several NOIS issues reported related to the auto population of city, state, and county name based on entry of a zip code. City information will now be provided on a regular basis to ensure population of a city name with postal codes know to be valid. This functionality is being provided by Kernel patch XU*8*292, which will be released at a future date. FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION: ======================= The functional changes that will be introduced with this patch include: 1. Prevent the population of SEQ 11 and 12 of the PID segment in the ORU~Z07 and ORF~Z07 Full Data Transmission messages if the Bad Address Indicator is present. These HL7 sequences contain patient address information. 2. Prevent the population of the RF1 segment in the ORU~Z07 and ORF~Z07 Full Data Transmission messages if the Bad Address Indicator is present. This segment contains information associated to the patient address, such as the Address Change Date/Time, Address Change Source, and Address Change Site.
