$TXT Created by RUZBACKI,RON T at LAWVAA.FO-BIRM.MED.VA.GOV (KIDS) on Thursday, 10/31/02 at 11:31 ============================================================================= Run Date: DEC 13, 2002 Designation: PSO*7*127 Package : PSO - OUTPATIENT PHARMACY Priority: Mandatory Version : 7 SEQ #113 Status: Released Compliance Date: JAN 13, 2003 ============================================================================= Subject: PATIENT ADDRESS CHANGES Category: - Enhancement (Mandatory) - Routine - Other Description: ============ The Deputy Undersecretary for Health for Operations and Management (10N) convened a task force in April 2002 to review the controlled substance process in VHA. The task force returned several recommendations. One of the recommendations was to modify Outpatient Pharmacy 7.0 to provide a record of all address changes. Medical Center Pharmacy Managers are encouraged to contact their IRM and arrange the regular auditing of changes to address and temporary address fields in the PATIENT file (#2). Pharmacy Managers should monitor these audits to discover and correct any patterns of inappropriate address changes. An option created with this patch will facilitate the review of the audits. Audits consume disk space on the VISTA system so audit results cannot be stored indefinitely. Pharmacy Managers should negotiate a timeframe for the regular review of the audits so that the audits can be purged from the system when no longer needed. The suggested fields for auditing are: STREET ADDRESS [LINE 1] (#.111) STREET ADDRESS [LINE 2] (#.112) STREET ADDRESS [LINE 3] (#.113) CITY (#.114) STATE (#.115) ZIP CODE (#.116) ZIP+4 (#.1112) TEMPORARY STREET [LINE 1] (#.1211) TEMPORARY STREET [LINE 2] (#.1212) TEMPORARY STREET [LINE 3] (#.1213) TEMPORARY CITY (#.1214) TEMPORARY STATE (#.1215) TEMPORARY ZIP CODE (#.1216) TEMPORARY ZIP+4 (#.12112) The new Patient Address Changes Report [PSO ADDRESS CHANGE REPORT] option is exported with this patch and will be placed under the Supervisor Functions [PSO SUPERVISOR] option. This option prints a report that shows changes made to the various address fields listed above from the PATIENT file (#2), over the date range specified. The report can be run for one patient, or for all patients. A field can only be tracked and shown on this report if the VA FileMan AUDIT function was turned on for the field at the time the field was edited.
