The Patient Name Standardization patch DG*5.3*244 introduced changes to the patient lookup logic which implemented "fuzzy" lookup functionality. This allowed pick lists to return entries beyond those that match the user's input exactly. With the fuzzy lookups in place, a bill number such as K301EL2 also returns patients whose names begin with KEL. This has an unexpected result on the AR options when the users enter bill numbers. A flag variable DPTNOFZY has been implemented to allow the suppression of fuzzy lookups in DG*5.3*244. A flag variable DPTNOFZK has been added to prevent the flag variable DPTNOFZY from being killed within the AR process in DG*5.3*541. Patch PRCA*4.5*198 has been created to set the flag variables at the various points where selection of bill numbers or patients occur.

SAG-0603-41043 Problem with fuzzy logic lookup Problem: -------- Sites reported that their billers are still getting the fuzzy lookup, but with countless patient names appearing, after DG*5.3*244 and IB*2.0*199 were installed. The problem has been fixed in Integrated Billing options, but not in Accounts Receivable options that should reconcile the fuzzy lookup problem as well. Resolution: ----------- Modified routines to set the flags that have been added to the patient lookup logic, this will suppress fuzzy lookups at the various points where selection of bill numbers or patients occur. An environment check routine will be used to check if the site has a CoreFLS version of software and to recommend not to install this patch unless an accompanying update is made to the AR-CoreFLS software immediately after installation of this patch.
