      2. Unrelated to the Prosthesis features, the trigger event for
         discontinuing orders will be moved from the TIME PAT OUT OR field
         (#.232) of the SURGERY file (#130) to the TIME PAT IN OR field (#.205)
         of the SURGERY file (#130). This enhancement is required as part of
         the Documenting Preoperative Antibiotics (Gainesville Solution)
         project.
       
      3. On the Nurse Intraoperative Report, replace references to CORRECT
         SURGERY COMMENTS to TIME OUT VERIFIED COMMENTS, IMAGING CONFIRMED
         software, adding new fields to the PROSTHESIS INSTALLED sub-file
         COMMENTS, and MARKED SITE COMMENTS, as appropriate.
         (#130.01) in the SURGERY file (#130). These new fields will
         function to mark the prosthesis item as sterile and record the
         expiration date of the sterile implant. The information entered into
         these fields will display on the Nurse Intraoperative Report. As an
         added safety/quality measure, the new fields will be mandatory for
         signing the Nurse Intraoperative Report. The report cannot be signed
         until all documentation is completed.

      General Surgery Items
      ---------------------
      - Remedy Ticket #HD0000000152814
        This patch addresses two issues related to the Update Assessment Status
        to 'COMPLETE' [SROA COMPLETE ASSESSMENT] option missing items list:
        (1) For the NUM OF PRIOR HEART SURGERIES field (#352) in the SURGERY
            file (#130), the field is corrected to display "Number of Prior
            Heart Surgeries" instead of "Prior Heart Surgery (Y/N)".
        (2) For the field "PRIOR HEART SURGERIES" field (#485) in the SURGERY 
       
            file (#130), the data input functionality is modified to use the
            same controlled data input functionality used by the Clinical
            Information (Enter/Edit) [SROA CLINICAL INFORMATION] option. 
       
      - Remedy Ticket #HD0000000177807
        After installing this patch, if procedure and diagnosis coding is not
        complete at the time the Update Assessment Status to 'COMPLETE' [SROA
        COMPLETE ASSESSMENT] option is run, the software will display "The
        coding for Procedure and Diagnosis is not complete" immediately before
        asking, "Are you sure you want to complete this assessment ?".
      - These updates include functionality for selecting cases for risk
       
      - Remedy Ticket #HD0000000185045
        When using the Outcome Information (Enter/Edit) [SROA CARDIAC-OUTCOMES] 
        option to edit the OPERATIVE DEATH field (#384), entering YES or NO 
        causes the NEW MECHANICAL CIRCULATORY field (#467) to be changed to the 
        same value. Editing the NEW MECHANICAL CIRCULATORY field (#467) field 
        does not change the OPERATIVE DEATH field (#384).
       
      - Short LOCK Timeouts
        This patch updates the 1 second LOCK timeouts in the routine SROUTL to 
        assessment based upon case Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes,
        use the VA FileMan variable DILOCKTM if it exists.
        replacing the use of the Major or Minor surgery definition.
         o When selecting a case to be assessed, the software will check the 
      Health Information Systems and Technology Architecture (VistA) Surgery
           case CPT codes and display an informational statement if no CPT codes
           have been assigned to the case or if the case should be excluded from
           assessment.
         o A new report called "List of Eligible Cases" is added to the reports 
           contained in the List of Surgery Risk Assessments [SROA ASSESSMENT 
           LIST] option.
         o The MAJOR/MINOR field (#.03) is removed from NSQIP input options and 
           from the Print a Surgery Risk Assessment [SROA PRINT ASSESSMENT]

      1.  HD194156 - Input transform for CPT Modifier 51 in Surgery
      The Lexicon package has been working to update the CPT code ranges for 
      the CPT Modifier 51. Part of this update is to include all Surgical 
      Procedures with the exception of those listed in Appendix E of the CPT
      Manual.  During the analysis phase for this project, it was discovered 
      that this unique CPT Modifier carries with it the stipulation that it 
      can not be used in conjunction with the principal procedure.

      the option Non-Cardiac Assessment Information (Enter/Edit) [SROA ENTER/EDIT]
      or the option Cardiac Risk Assessment Information (Enter/Edit) [SROA CARDIAC

         If the user quits using the up-arrow ("^"), the software does not
         respond correctly and subsequently errors out. This patch fixes this
         problem.
       
      3. It was reported that if the Surgery case was in a requested state 
         and if an entry is made in the TIME PAT IN OR field (#.205) of the 
         SURGERY file (#130), it is found that the time gets appended to the
         DATE OF OPERATION field (#.09) of the SURGERY file (#130). This is
         causing the time to appear in the scheduling grid and prevents the case
         scheduling. This entry should be made only if the case is in a
         option to flag drugs in the DRUG file (#50) for use as anesthesia 
         scheduled state or entered via the Operation Menu [SROPER] option. This
         patch provides the user the option to delete any of the following
         entered date fields as a pre-condition for scheduling such cases:
       
          - ANES CARE START TIME field (#.21), TIME OPERATION BEGAN 
            field (#.22), TIME OPERATION ENDS field (#.23), ANES CARE END TIME

            field (#.232)

      2. When canceling a concurrent case using the Cancel Scheduled Operation 
         [SRSCAN] option, the software prompts, "There is a concurrent case 
         associated with this operation. Do you want to cancel it also? YES//".

      This patch provides the ability to electronically sign operative reports 
      Features provided by this patch are described in the Surgery Electronic 
      Signature for Operative Reports Release Notes and in the Surgery 
      Electronic Signature for Operative Reports Implementation Guide.
      contained within the VISTA Surgery V. 3.0 application. These reports
      include the Operation Report, the Nurse Intraoperative Report, the
      Anesthesia Report and the Procedure Report (Non-O.R.). This patch provides
      the ability to view these signed reports through the Computerized Patient
      Record System (CPRS) by storing them in the Text Integration Utilities
      (TIU) V. 1.0 application. Tools provided by the TIU software will be used
      to sign and manage the electronic documents.

           attending codes used by the Surgery software. These codes include 
           both sets of Levels 0 to 3 (before and after patch SR*3*126, all
           flagged as inactive codes) and the latest codes for Levels A to F
           (active codes).
       
      There is no conflict between this patch and the CoreFLS software.
       (b) The name of the existing ATTENDING CODE field (#.165) in the SURGERY
           file (#130) is changed to *ATTENDING CODE - NOT USED and a new
           ATTENDING CODE field (#.166) is created that points to the ATTENDING
           CODES file (#132.9).
       
       (c) The patch includes a post-install conversion that loops through all 
           the cases in the SURGERY file (#130) and matches the attending code
           in the old field (#.165) with the equivalent code in the new
           ATTENDING CODE field (#.166), storing the equivalent code in the new

      2. ENSURING CORRECT SURGERY PHASE II
         Phase II of the Ensuring Correct Surgery Enhancement Project provides
         the following enhancements:
       
       
       (a) The following new fields are added to the SURGERY file (#130):
           - TIME OUT VERIFIED COMMENTS field (#82)
           - IMAGING CONFIRMED COMMENTS field (#83)
           - MARKED SITE COMMENTS field (#84)
       
           These fields are added to capture the comments corresponding to the
           following:
           - TIME OUT VERIFIED field (#71)
           - PREOPERATIVE IMAGING CONFIRMED field (#72)
      1. RESIDENT SUPERVISION
           - MARKED SITE CONFIRMED field (#73)
       
       (b) The following data entry options will be modified to include
           the new comment fields noted in item (a):
           - Operation [SROMEN-OP]
           - Operation (Short Screen) [SROMEN-OUT]
           - Nurse Intraoperative Report [SRONRPT]
       
           Entry of "NO" in any of the three Correct Surgery fields will prompt
           the user to enter the associated comment field. Entry of "NO" in
         The Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Handbook 1400.1, dated May 3, 
           any of the three Correct Surgery fields will not automatically force
           entry into the respective comment field.
       
       (c) Nurse Intraoperative Report Changes
           If any of the three Correct Surgery fields are not answered, the
           nurse will not be able to electronically sign the Nurse
           Intraoperative Report. If any of the three Correct Surgery fields is
           answered "NO" but does not have information in the corresponding
           comments field, the nurse will not be able to electronically sign the
           Nurse Intraoperative Report. The nurse will be able to update this
         2004, changed the levels of resident supervision for operating room 
           information at time of signature without leaving the option.
       
       (d) The compliance reports, which were disabled in phase I are 
           reactivated and are modified to display the new formats for the three
           Correct Surgery fields.
       
       (e) Convert Existing Comments
           For each of the three Correct Surgery fields answered with a "NO" 
           response, the information in the CORRECT SURGERY COMMENTS field (#27)
           of the SURGERY file (#130) will be replicated in the corresponding

      review the information entered into the data fields documenting the 
      procedure in the SURGERY file (#130) is by way of the data entry options 
      on the Non-O.R. Procedures (Enter/Edit) [SRONOP-ENTER] menu.
       
      This patch adds the Non-OR Procedure Information [SR NON-OR INFO] option, 
      to the Non-O.R. Procedures (Enter/Edit) [SRONOP-ENTER] menu and to the 
      CPT/ICD9 Update/Verify Menu [SRCODING UPDATE/VERIFY MENU]. This option 
      There is no conflict between this patch and the CoreFLS software.
      will display the "op-top" information that formerly was part of the 
      Procedure Report (Non-OR). The output from this option may be viewed on 
      the user's screen or may be printed.  
       
      A future enhancement is planned that will incorporate the "op-top"
      information into an electronically signed document and thus be viewable in
      the Computerized Patient Record System (CPRS). At this time, the details
      of this enhancement and schedule for release are not known.
      Installation of this patch by the CoreFLS sites will not cause any 
      problems.

         To prevent possible cosigner problems with the Operation Report and

         file (#130), to complete a surgical case, if the ATTEND SURGEON field 
         (#.164) is blank, the software will prompt the user to enter the 
         attending surgeon. For non-OR procedures, when a user enters the TIME 
         PROCEDURE ENDED field (#122), if the ATTEND PROVIDER field (#124) is 
         blank, the software will prompt the user to enter the attending

         data to PCE in real time when the coder completes the coding process
         for a case. After a case is filed with PCE, if certain data passed to 
         PCE is changed within the Surgery software, the Surgery to PCE
         interface sends an update to PCE immediately. ICD coding related data 
         is updated through the Update/Verify Procedure/Diagnosis Codes

         Coders currently use the Update/Verify Procedure/Diagnosis Codes 
         [SRCODING EDIT] option, which updates coded data directly in the 
      functionality will not be active until a new PFSS switch is activated

         currently make a distinction between procedure and diagnosis data
         entered by clinicians and that entered by coders. Today, coding a
         surgical case impacts the clinical data for the patient and causes an
         addendum to be generated because each code is directly associated with
         a free-text procedure or diagnosis entry. This patch separates final
         coded procedures and diagnoses from the clinically captured procedures
         and diagnoses.
       
         A new file, the SURGERY PROCEDURE/DIAGNOSIS CODES file (#136), is
      during final implementation. PFSS will initially be implemented at select
         created to store coded procedure and coded diagnosis data for a Surgery
         case. Data entered into this file will be the new source coding data
         sent by the Surgery package to PCE. In the SURGERY file (#130), the
         existing PRINCIPAL CPT Code field (#27), PRIN DIAGNOSIS CODE field 
         (#66), OTHER PROCEDURE CPT CODE field (#3 of sub-file #130.16) and ICD
         DIAGNOSIS CODE field (#3 of sub-file #130.18) are modified to include
         the word "PLANNED" in the field labels and titles.
         
         The Update/Verify Procedure/Diagnosis Codes [SRCODING EDIT] option is 
         modified to allow entry of final billing Current Procedural

         Classification of Disease (ICD) diagnosis codes in the SURGERY
         PROCEDURE/DIAGNOSIS CODES file (#136).
       
         Modified features of the Update/Verify Procedure/Diagnosis Codes
         [SRCODING EDIT] option are listed below:
         - Upon record creation for a case in the SURGERY PROCEDURE/DIAGNOSIS
           CODES file (#136), the record will be auto-populated with clinician
           entered coding data, if any, from the SURGERY file (#130).
         - A principal ICD code and a principal CPT code are initial
       
           requirements for coding a surgical case. 
         - An unlimited number of ICD codes may be entered for other diagnoses
           and an unlimited number of CPT codes may be entered for other
           procedures performed.
         - Each CPT code entered must be assigned the associated ICD code(s)
           related to the procedure performed.
         - An unlimited number of CPT modifiers may be entered for each CPT code
           entered.
         - For every ICD code entered, the following questions must be answered
           as appropriate for the patient based upon enrollment indicators:
      The purpose of the PFSS project is to prepare the Veterans Health

           o Treatment related to Military Sexual Trauma?
           o Treatment related to Head and/or Neck Cancer?
           o Treatment related to Combat?
         - Upon completion of coding for a case, the coder is allowed to mark
           the record as complete and to send the record immediately to PCE.
         - Before allowing the record to be marked as complete, the option

           the user to make sure that the code is correct for the case. This
           check is added to prevent the inadvertent assignment of code 065.0
           when "CHF" is entered for the Principal or Other ICD Diagnosis
           codes.
         
      2. Modified Surgery Reports and Other Options
         - The following Surgery reports and options as modified to use the
           coder entered CPT and/or ICD codes from the SURGERY 
      implementation of a commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) billing replacement
           PROCEDURE/DIAGNOSIS CODES file (#136):

      DESCRIPTION:   
      This patch is part of the Patient Financial Services System (PFSS) 
      replacement system. The project consists of the implementation of the 
      billing replacement system, business process improvements, and 
      enhancements to VistA to support integration with the COTS billing 
      replacement system. Significant changes to VistA legacy systems and 
      ancillary packages are necessary.
       
      Some of the PFSS software components are not operational until the PFSS 
      On/Off Switch, distributed with patch IB*2*260, is set to "ON". The 
      ability for the local site to set the switch to "ON" will be provided at 
      the appropriate time with the release of a subsequent Integrated Billing 
      project. PFSS patches are being released on various schedules. Some patch
      patch.

      accompanying this patch and refer to the following website:

      Features of patch SR*3*144 are listed below:
       
      1. The VistA Surgery software will be enhanced to request an account
         number for every Surgery Request Consult. This activity will support
      functionality will not be active until a new PFSS switch is activated
         the Revenue Office's need to pre-certify with insurance companies the
         requested Surgery. A national guideline will be issued defining the
         minimum format for creating a Surgery Request Consult within the VistA
         Consults package that will collect the data required by PFSS. The
         Surgery Request Consult will not create a Surgery case. This guideline
         does not require that sites use the Consults package for creating
         Surgery requests. Sites using VistA Surgery Request options can
         continue to use that approach.
       
         VistA Surgery will be enhanced to also request a PFSS ACCOUNT
      during final implementation. PFSS will initially be implemented at select
         REFERENCE, and it will be stored in the PFSS ACCOUNT REFERENCE field
         (#500) of the SURGERY file (#130). The association to a PFSS ACCOUNT
         REFERENCE is obtained when the Surgery case is created and is sent to
         the PATIENT CARE ENCOUNTER (PCE) application upon completion of coding.
       
      2. This patch changes the List Completed Cases Missing CPT Codes [SRSCPT]
         option to list only those completed cases that do not have a final CPT 
         code entered in the PRINCIPAL PROCEDURE CODE field (#.02) of the
         SURGERY PROCEDURE/DIAGNOSIS CODES file (#136).
      pilot sites ONLY.
       
      The purpose of the PFSS project is to prepare the Veterans Health 
      Information Systems and Technology Architecture (VistA) environment for 
      the implementation of a Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) billing
