$TXT Created by WHITE,ELAINE at INPVAA.FO-BIRM.MED.VA.GOV (KIDS) on Friday, 01/03/03 at 12:10 ============================================================================= Run Date: JAN 14, 2003 Designation: PSO*7*124 Package : PSO - OUTPATIENT PHARMACY Priority: EMERGENCY Version : 7 SEQ #115 Status: Released Compliance Date: JAN 16, 2003 ============================================================================= Associated patches: (v)PSO*7*82 <<= must be installed BEFORE `PSO*7*124' (v)PSO*7*94 <<= must be installed BEFORE `PSO*7*124' (v)PSO*7*103 <<= must be installed BEFORE `PSO*7*124' (v)PSO*7*111 <<= must be installed BEFORE `PSO*7*124' Subject: PRESCRIPTION EXPIRATION DATE MINIMUM OF 30 DAYS FROM ISSUE DATE W/O REFILLS Category: - Enhancement () - Routine Description: ============ 1. Currently, if a non-controlled substance prescription is entered with a day supply less than 5 days and there are no refills, the expiration date defaults to 5 days from the issue date. If a controlled substance prescription is entered with a day supply less than 5 days without refills, the expiration date is the Issue Date plus the Days Supply. The primary problem is that when these prescriptions were being transmitted to the CMOPs and they were behind on dispensing, the prescriptions were being rejected because the prescriptions had already expired. The default of 5 is being changed to 30 to accommodate the CMOPs and to allow the patients to receive their medications in a timely manner. Prescriptions will no longer expire before 30 days elapses from the Issue Date when the day supply is less than 30 days and there are no refills. If a minimum of 1 refill is entered the one year/six month rule still applies. 2. This patch also includes a correction to initialize the line counter for the "SIG1" entries in the PRESCRIPTION file (#52). Before this fix, the count could be incorrect sometimes which could cause problems for external interfaces. 3. This patch corrects a problem that caused a null subscript error when attempting to access the MEDS tab in the Computerized Patient Record System (CPRS). This would happen if records were being created in the PENDING OUTPATIENT ORDERS file (#52.41) and an attempt was made to pull up the patient's medications in CPRS at the same moment.
