============================================================================= Run Date: OCT 07, 2004 Designation: PSU*3*34 Package : PSU - PHARMACY BENEFITS MANAGEMENT Priority: Mandatory Version : 3 SEQ #27 Status: Released Compliance Date: NOV 07, 2004 ============================================================================= Associated patches: (v)PSU*3*19 <<= must be installed BEFORE `PSU*3*34' Subject: INPATIENT MEDICATIONS REQUIREMENTS FOR THE SPECIAL FOCUS GROUP IRA, PHASE I Category: - Routine - Informational - Enhancement (Mandatory) Description: ============ Phase I of the Inpatient Medications Requirements for the Special Focus Group Initial Requirements Analysis (IRA) project consists of four patches. The patches are combined in host file PSJ_PSS_OR_PSU_110.KID in order to simplify installation at Veterans Health Administration (VHA) facilities. Installation of this host file should be coordinated among the four packages affected since only one installation is necessary. The patches, in order of install, are: PSS*1*79 PHARMACY DATA MANAGEMENT V. 1.0 PSJ*5*110 INPATIENT MEDICATIONS V. 5.0 OR*3*213 ORDER ENTRY/RESULTS REPORTING V. 1.0 PSU*3*34 PHARMACY BENEFITS MANAGEMENT V. 3.0 Patches PSS*1*79, OR*3*213, and PSU*3*34 contain changes to support the following enhancements in PSJ*5*110: 1. The Extend Stop Date on Renewal enhancements will allow an order to be renewed without creating a new order. Editing of the start date will no longer be allowed during the renewal process. In addition, limits have been set on the length of time after an order expires that it may be renewed. This is outlined in the Bar Code Medication Administration (BCMA) 2001 Special Focus Report, Requirement #11. 2. The Complex Order enhancements will change the way complex orders are handled by linking complex components (child orders) together. If the actions Finish, Verify, Discontinue, or Renew are taken on one child order, the user will be alerted that the action must be taken on all of the complex component orders in the set. The user will then be prompted to take the appropriate action on each child order in the complex order set. This is outlined in BCMA 2001 Special Focus Report, Requirement #8. 3. The STAT and NOW Order Notification enhancements will alert users subscribing to new mail group PSJ STAT NOW PENDING ORDER when a pending STAT or NOW order has been received from Computerized Patient Record System (CPRS) V. 1.0. Users subscribing to the new mail group PSJ STAT NOW ACTIVE ORDER will receive an alert when a STAT or NOW order is made active. This is outlined in BCMA 2001 Special Focus Report, Requirement #12. Changes to PHARMACY BENEFITS MANAGEMENT (PBM) V. 3.0 have been included in this patch to address the following issues: 1. Problem: The changes to renewed orders introduced by the Inpatient Medications Requirements for the Special Focus Group IRA, Phase I project will allow renewed orders to have an active status for periods of time that exceed the current PBM V. 3.0 time period parameters. Solution: The code searching for IV and Unit Dose activity within the transmitting period has been modified to accommodate the extended periods of time orders may contain an active status as a result of the changes introduced by the Inpatient Medications Requirements for the Special Focus Group IRA, Phase I project. 2. Problem: In several extracts only the first portion of the patient Integration Control Number is being extracted. The entire Integration Control Number needs to be exported. NOIS: HIN-0503-41359 Solution: Patch PSU*3*34 will correct and extract the entire Integration Control Number in the IV multiple (#100) in the Pharmacy Patient file (#55) and the UNIT DOSE multiple (#62) in the Pharmacy Patient file (#55). Patch PSU*3*24 will correct the problem in all other applicable files. This is being done so that patch 24 and 34 can move forward without conflict.
