has been set to BOTH PCE/VSIT AND STOP CODES
==============================
Problem:
Scheduling software determines if a particular procedure requires patient
diagnosis based on the HOSPITAL LOCATION file setup. The Laboratory was
passing the ordering location without patient diagnosis. This produced
NPCDB workload recording errors because of no diagnosis being passed.
Some packages still use Clinic Stop codes to identify certain kinds of
data. The Stop Codes were determined based on the HOSPITAL LOCATION file
setup. The Stop Code passed by Laboratory to the PCE API was not being
used.
============================
Problem Solution
New OOS HOSPITAL LOCATIONS will be created solely for Laboratory NPCDB
Workload reporting. These new locations can not be used for appointments
or as test ordering locations. These special OOS locations will be
configured to not require diagnosis, eliminating the current errors.
The Scheduling software will use these special hospital (non diagnosis
requiring) locations when passing workload to NPCDB. Upon initial install
Patches should be installed in the following order:
all workload will be reported as laboratory Stop Code 108 for the Primary
Institution as defined by LMIP Workload Collection file (#67.9). Options
are provided to allow the LIM to create additional OOS Hospital Locations.
The naming of the OOS locations is controlled by the a option included in
this patch.
NOTE: The LIM can not edit the Hospital Location file directly. They can
only do so via a special option. LAB OOS LOCATIONS should not be created
through VA FileMan.
SD*5.3*63 (Scheduling)
==============================
Workload Reporting Logic:
1. Only collected specimens will be processed by the software.
2. Only laboratory specimens having a collection type of Immediate
Collect, Send Patient or Lab Collect will receive phlebotomy Workload
credit.
3. Only those specimens with a HOSPITAL LOCATION type of Clinic, Module or
Other will be passed to PCE API. This is not dependent on specimen
collection type
4. No new WKLD CODE CPT codes are included in this patch. Those linked
RA*4.5*8 (Radiology/Nuclear Med)
LABORATORY TESTS without CPT codes will not be passed to PCE API. Another
Laboratory patch will fully populate the WKLD CODE file with CPT codes.
NOTE: The DEFAULT LAB OOS LOCATION field is populated during the post
install. This field is used by NPCDB Laboratory workload reporting
software if a specific ACCESSION AREA does not have a LAB OOS LOCATION
assigned.
A tasked routine will inspect the LAB ORDER ENTRY (#69) file for
collected specimens. When it finds a patient with collected specimen(s)
LR*5.2*138 (Laboratory ** this patch **)
the software will use the above logic steps to determine if the specimen
meets criteria. If the specimens meets criteria, the software checks the
ACCESSION AREA where the specimen was accessioned. The accessioned test(s)
does not need to be verified in order to trigger NPCDB or LMIP Phlebotomy
workload reporting. If the ACCESSION AREA has a LAB OOS LOCATION defined
the API will pass that location. If the ACCESSION AREA does not have a LAB
OOS LOCATION defined, the DEFAULT LAB OOS LOCATION will be passed.

POTENTIAL IMPACT ON SITES: This patch contains no changes to files and
routines identified in Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Directive
99-053. The changes that are made have no effect to Blood Bank
functionality or medical device control functions. There is no adverse
potential to sites.
VALIDATION REQUIREMENTS BY OPTION: There are no required validation
scenarios to be completed by sites after installing this patch.
=============================
Patch Description:
===========================
1) There is a unique set of circumstances that will cause the PCE workload
update background software program (LRCAPPH1) to produce a software error.
The error situation is created when an orderable test has no accession
area assigned and is ordered from an outpatient location.
When the laboratory accessions the specimen, the appropriate accession
area is selected. The selected accession area is not updated in the LAB
ORDER ENTRY file (#69). PCE workload data has been credited for that
order/accession. The test is then subsequently Not Performed(NP) and PCE
workload has already been credited, the PCE workload update background
software will error for a lack of accession area definition in the LAB
ORDER ENTRY file. This patch will correct this situation by using the
default DSS Location value instead of attempting to determine the specific
accession area used to accession the test. This error is only manifested
under these sequence of events. If the order/accession is NP before PCE
workload is credited, no error will occur.
The software will remove PCE encounters that do not have CPT workload
June 10, 1999
because all of the CPT Codes for the order have been Not Performed (NP).
Order Status screen will display the encounter number with appended text
to explain CPT workload transactions.
Example: XXX indicates the encounter number.
-CPT CANC indicates at least one of the CPT workload credits have been
removed.
-ENC DEL indicates that all CPT workload has been removed and the
encounter has been deleted.
Visit Number(s): XXX-CPT CANC-ENC DEL;
2) The option Results entry (batch) [LRMISTUF] allows for three methods of
input batch data. Patch LR*5.2*263 disabled the third option of 'Just
Prompt'. Patch LR*5.2*264 restores this functionality.
3) The option Workload Report [LRCAPR1] allows for the reporting of
quality control in the report. If the QC specimens are accessioned
automatically by the nightly background job, there is no ward location
defined. The report would not report any of these specimens on the report.
VISTA Laboratory Package patch LR*5.2*264 contains no changes to software
The routine LRCAPR2 corrects this problem.
4) In certain situations, Laboratory was passing to the PCE API incorrect
date/time, which resulted in corrupted date/time fields in PCE. This patch
corrects this problem. Laboratory will no longer pass time that includes
seconds to the PCE API. This will reduce the number of visit numbers
generated per order.
NOTE: Scheduling patch SD*5.3*227 will provide the functionality to
correct previous PCE data containing the erroneous date/time values.

**NOTE**
When initially setting up the FOREIGN INTERFACE file (#62.487), the

FOREIGN COMPUTER INTERFACE NAME field (#.01) should ALWAYS be set to
"CAREVUE" (all caps, no leading or trailing spaces, and no quotes). The
routines that access this file are looking specifically for CAREVUE. The
routines will not be able to process the results for CareVue ward patients
if this is not done.
This patch contains changes to Class I CareVue code and requires that
patch LA*5.2*53 and LR*5.2*263 be installed before LA*5.2*58. Patches
LA*5.2*58 and LR*5.2*266 are contained in the same KID file
(LA_52_P58.KID) and will be installed together.
5.2.
This patch includes the following changes:
1. This patch updates the documentation released with the CareVue
Interface patch (LA*5.2*53).
2. This patch makes changes to the routines LRVER3A and LRMIUT, and will
create a new routine (LA7DLOC). Currently, two routines (LRVER3A and
LRMIUT) contain the Class I software for the CareVue interface. This patch
will modify these routines to call the new routine (LA7DLOC). LA7DLOC
contains the Class I code for determining if a patient is located in a
CareVue ward. The current condition of the Class I code checks the CHEM,
HEM, TOX, RIA, SER, etc. field (#4) and the Microbiology field (#5) of the
Lab Data file (#63), but the updated routines will call LA7DLOC and will
look in the Ward Location field (#.1) of the Patient file (#2). This
shows the current location of the patient. There were problems with
patients that were not transferred to the CareVue ward until after the lab
order was taken. The old routine was checking where the patient was
located when the order was taken, and not the current location of the
patient.

3. Updates to the HL/7 date conversion routines. The previous standard
for HL/7 dates listed the date in YYYYMMDDHHMMSS format. The degree of
precision was listed as a separate parameter. The new standard format is
[YYYY[MM[DD[HH[MM[SS]]]]]-zzzz] where the bracketed sections are optional
depending on the existence of the subsequent set. Also, if either the
seconds or the minutes/seconds combination consist only of zeroes, the
minutes (if zeroes) and seconds will be omitted. The length of the
date/time string specifies the degree of precision. In addition, a ZULU
time offset (-zzzz) is also included. This is the number of hours between

Greenwich Mean Time and the local time where the date/time string was
created. Routines LA7DVM and LA7DVEXT have been modified to use the
Kernel function ($$FMTHL7^XLFDT) to convert dates from FileMan to HL7
instead of the HL/7 date conversion utility ($$HDATE^HLFNC).
4. This patch will use TaskMan to transfer data to the CareVue system.
Currently, TaskMan is not invoked. This could cause a problem verifying a
result if an error was encountered in the CareVue routines.
5. This patch changes the LA7D EDIT FOREIGN INTERFACE (Edit Foreign

Computer System Name.
6. This patch updates the Processing RTN field (#771) and the Response
Processing RTN field (#772) of the Protocol file (#101) for the LA7D

The Anatomic Pathology problems addressed by this patch are as follows:
A. ANATOMIC PATHOLOGY LOGIN/DATA ENTRY
1. SYSTEM HANGS DURING LOG-IN, ANAT PATH [LRAPLG] OPTION
When two or more users are trying to login in patients using the Log-in, anat
path [LRAPLG] option the system hangs after the patient location is entered
because the record in the ACCESSION file (#68) is locked. The solution is to
DEVICE PRODUCT LABELING STATEMENT
put a five second time out on the lock with the message "Someone else is
logging in specimens. Please wait and try again." For example:

NOIS: MUS-0395-70386, SHR-0595-70238
2. CONTINUOUS LOOP OCCURS IN LOG-IN, ANAT PATH [LRAPLG] OPTION
If a user is entering data using the option Log-in, anat path [LRAPLG] and the
user does not have the LRLAB, LRSUPER, LRVERIFY, or LRLIASON security keys,
the patient location prompt does not appear. If the patient is a new patient
with no data in the LAB DATA file (#63), the code tries to file '???' as the
patient location. The Fileman DIE call does not accept '???' for patient
location so it attempts to retrieve the patient location again. The result is
an endless loop which prints "This is the requesting location." For example:
August 23, 2000
Assign SURGICAL PATHOLOGY accession #: 2 ? YES// (YES)
Date/time Specimen taken: TODAY// (DEC 11, 1995)
This is the requesting location.
This is the requesting location.
This is the requesting location.
The fix to the problem is to replace the '???' with 'UNKNOWN' which is
accepted by Fileman. NOIS: DUB-0895-32241, LEB-0899-22335, SAM-0499-22281,

A number of Anatomic Pathology data entry options use a common prompt to
request accession lookup by number or patient name. The prompt is:

The options are:

When an accession number is entered at this prompt, data is retrieved
properly. However, when a patient name is entered another patient name
prompt appears requiring the user to re-enter the patient name. A
different name can even be used at the second prompt. For example:
Select Accession Number/Pt name: JONES
Select Patient Name: SMITH
A second problem also occurs at this prompt. In most data entry options, the
data entry year prompt appears just before the accession number/patient name
prompt. For example:
Data entry for 2000 ? YES// (YES)

If the accession number is used for lookup, only accessions for the year
chosen are allowed to be entered. However, if patient name is used for
PROBLEM:
lookup, all accessions found for the patient are presented to the user. If
the user chooses an accession for a year that is not the same as the year
entered at the original prompt, it is possible that accession data for the
wrong patient is presented to the user. This occurs because the lookup
uses the year entered at the original prompt, not the actual year of the
accession when locating the data in the ACCESSION file (#68).
These problems have been resolved by modifying the prompt to perform lookup
for both accession number and patient name, eliminating the second prompt.
The prompt has also been modified to present only accessions for the chosen
# 1. Changes have been made to routines LRU and LRUPA to eliminate
year when looking up the accession by patient name. Help text has been added
to the prompt as well. NOIS: HAM-1199-22006, HAM-1100-21233, BOI-0400-52235
B. ANATOMIC PATHOLOGY REPORTS
1. UNNECESSARY FORM FEEDS OCCUR WHILE PRINTING ANATOMIC PATHOLOGY REPORTS
Several Anatomic Pathology reports are violating the DHCP Programming
Standards and Conventions (SAC) by starting with a forum feed before printing
the report and printing two form feeds at the end of the report. These
unnecessary form feeds seen in some Anatomic Pathology reports.
reports, the Surgical Pathology, Cytopathology and Electron Microscopy
Preliminary, Final and Supplementary Reports, the Autopsy Protocol and
Supplementary reports, and the Final Pathology Report by Accession Number have
been corrected by removing the unnecessary form feeds so that the reports now
conform to standards. The related options for these reports are:
Print all reports on queue [LRAP PRINT ALL ON QUEUE]
Print single report only [LRAP PRINT SINGLE]
Print final path reports by accession # [LRAPFICH]
Autopsy protocol/supplementary report [LRAPAUPT]
Blood Bank reports are unaffected.
Print path modifications [LRAPMOD]
Print path gross/micr/dx/fr.sect modifications [LRAPQAM]
NOIS: WPB-0696-30073, IND-1097-41646
2. NOT ABLE TO DISTINGUISH BETWEEN THE PATIENT AND THE PHYSICIAN
ON THE FOOTER OF THE AUTOPSY PROTOCOL REPORT.
The autopsy protocol report is generated by the Print all reports on queue
[LRAP PRINT ALL ON QUEUE], Print single report only [LRAP PRINT SINGLE], and
Autopsy protocol/supplementary report [LRAPAUPT] options. The footer of the
autopsy protocol report has been modified to distinguish the patient's name
from the physician's name because it is easy for those reading the report to
confuse the two names. Labels "Patient:" and "Physician:" were added in front
of the names so that they are now easy to identify. The spacing of the other
fields has been adjusted to allow for better readability. For example:
Pathologist: DOE,JOHN wty| Date Nov 24, 1999|

MEDICINE Physician: DOE,JANE AGE AT DEATH:
Also, the field spacing of the header for the weights, measures, and coding
section of the report has been redesigned for better readability. For
example:

3. CREATE AN AUDIT TRAIL FOR THE SUPPLEMENTARY ANATOMIC PATHOLOGY REPORTS
It is possible to edit a supplementary report with no audit trail after the
of accessions for a patient [LRUPT] option. Changes have also been
report has been released. This patch will create an audit trail when a
released supplementary report is edited or when the entire pathology report
is edited. The audit trail information such as who modified the report, the
date/time the modification was made, and the original text before the
modification occurred will appear on the supplementary report. New fields have
been created to store this data. The fields are:
a.) SUPPLEMENTARY REPORT MODIFIED
When a user modifies an existing report, the date/time of the modification is
made to this routine to fix a problem that occurs when an accession
stored in this field. If the user creates a new supplementary report for a
released pathology report, this audit information is also stored.
b.) PERSON MODIFYING TEXT
The DUZ of the user who created or modified the report is stored in this
field.
c.) PREMODIFICATION TEXT
is collected in one year but tests are performed in the next year.
This is the original text, as it existed before the modification occurred.
This is for existing reports only.
Since supplementary reports are included in the autopsy, surgical pathology,
electron microscopy, and cytopathology sections, these three fields were
added for each section in the LAB DATA file (#63) as follows:

Any option that allows the input of supplementary reports has been modified
to store these three pieces of information multiple times for each
modification to a supplementary report. This is not visible to the user.
These options include Supplementary Report, Anat Path [LRAPDSR] and Autopsy
supplementary report [LRAPAUSR].
All options that print supplementary report information have been modified
to display the audit information as well. These options include:
Print all reports on queue [LRAP PRINT ALL ON QUEUE]
Print single report only [LRAP PRINT SINGLE]
Print final path reports by accession # [LRAPFICH]
Print path modifications [LRAPMOD]
Autopsy Protocol/Supplementary Report [LRAPAUPT]

5. A PATHOLOGIST IS ABLE TO ENTER A FUTURE DATE/TIME WHEN USING
functions.
VERIFY/RELEASE REPORTS, ANAT PATH [LRAPR] OPTION TO RELEASE A
PATHOLOGY REPORT.
When using option Verify/release reports, anat path [LRAPR] to release a
pathology report, the pathologist may enter a future date/time at the
'Report Release Date/Time' prompt. Only current date/time should be
allowed. The prompt has been replaced with a yes/no question as follows:
Release report? No//
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
! PLEASE NOTE: With the old prompt, the user was able to enter an !
! 'N' for NOW to store the current date/time. A response of 'N' !
! at the new prompt will result in a 'No' which will leave the !
! report unreleased. !
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If the user answers 'Yes', the current date/time is stored in the REPORT
RELEASE DATE/TIME field (#.11) of the SURGICAL PATHOLOGY sub-file (#63.08),
field (#8) of the LAB DATA file (#63) for the SURGICAL PATHOLOGY section.
POTENTIAL IMPACT ON SITES: This patch contains changes to a file
For the CYTOPATHOLOGY section, the current date/time is stored in the REPORT
RELEASE DATE/TIME field (#.11) of the CYTOPATHOLOGY sub-file (#63.09),
sub-field (#9). For the ELECTRON MICROSCOPY (EM) section, the current
date/time is stored in the REPORT RELEASE DATE/TIME field (#.11) of the EM
sub-file (#63.02),sub-field (#2). For the AUTOPSY section, the current
date/time is stored in the AUTOPSY RELEASE DATE/TIME field (#14.7) of the
LAB DATA file (#63). If the report has already been released, the following
text will appear:
Report released JAN 06, 2000@16:47:32 by YOUNG,TIM
identified in Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Directive 99-053, group
The user will then be prompted for another accession number or patient
name.
The "@" sign response to unrelease Provisional Anatomical Diagnosis reports
awaiting Final Anatomical Diagnosis has been changed to a YES/NO response
(i.e.,Unrelease report? NO//YES). NOIS: REN-0197-61357
6. WEIGHTS, MEASURES, AND CODING PRINT ON AUTOPSY REPORT REGARDLESS OF
ANSWER TO YES/NO QUESTION ON AUTOPSY PROTOCOL REPORT.
B listing. The changes have no effect in Blood Bank functionality or
When option Print all reports on queue [LRAP PRINT ALL ON QUEUE] or option
Print single report only [LRAP PRINT SINGLE] is used for the AUTOPSY section
to create the Autopsy Protocol Report, the question 'Print weights, measures
and coding (if present): ? YES// ' is asked. Regardless of the user's
response to this question (Yes or No), the weights, measures, and coding
information is printed on the report. The Autopsy Protocol report has been
corrected so that if the user answers 'No' to this question, the weights,
measures, and coding information will not print on the report.
NOIS: DAY-0595-40195
medical device control functions. There is no adverse potential to sites.
7. ACCESSION NUMBER WRAPS ON SURGICAL PATHOLOGY REPORTS
When using option Print single report only [LRAP PRINT SINGLE] or option
Print all reports on queue [LRAP PRINT ALL ON QUEUE]to print pathology
reports, if the accession number is too large, it wraps to the next line
when the report prints. This problem was resolved by adjusting the print
position of the accession number so that no wrapping will occur.
NOIS: MAR-0398-22377
ENHANCEMENT
8. SYNONYMS MAY CAUSE INCORRECT TESTS TO BE DISPLAYED ON THE LAB ORDERS BY
COLLECTION TYPE [LRRP5] OPTION REPORT
The Lab Orders by Collection Type [LRRP5] report may indicate incorrect
tests as being ordered if a particular test has a SYNONYM (field #2,
sub-file #60.1) of the LABORATORY TEST file (#60) that is identical to the
internal entry number (IEN) of the look-up test. For example, suppose
GLUCOSE has an IEN of 175 in the LABORATORY TEST file (#60) and FERRITIN
has a SYNONYM (#2) of 175 in file #60. When the code is executed, the return
value is Ferritin and not Glucose. The fix to this problem is to concatenate
VALIDATION REQUIREMENTS BY OPTION: There are no required validation
an accent/grave (`)character to the beginning of the lookup value before
performing a lookup with DIC(0). When the accent grave (`) character is
used, the lookup is limited to the internal entry numbers only and thus
ignoring the SYNONYM (#2). NOIS: IND-0797-40657.
9. PROBLEMS WITH SHOW LIST OF ACCESSIONS FOR A PATIENT [LRUPT] OPTION
Two different problems were reported with this option. They are:
(A) When running the Show list of accessions for a patient [LRUPT] option,
scenarios to be completed by sites after installing this patch.
'??' displays where the accession should be when using the Autopsy section.
This option will now display the accession number on the report for the
Autopsy section. NOIS: AUG-0398-32638
(B) There is also a problem with certain tests not appearing when this option
is run, even though the missing tests do appear on other accession list
reports. For example:
CHEMISTRY DANGERFIELD,RODNEY ID: 222-33-4444 TESTS ORDERED
Spec Date/time Acc # Site/specimen Tests
******************************************************************************
01/15/93 10:11 CH 0115 9 SERUM 1)CALCIUM
12/26/92 11:00 CH 0115 8 SERUM
11/13/92 16:14 CH 1113 6 SERUM 1)GLUCOSE
Notice that the test is missing on the second line. It was discovered that
this occurred on accessions in which the user enters a collection date for
the previous year but the order date is in the current year. For example:
ACCESSION: CH 0115 8 ORDER #: 183 PATIENT: DANGERFIELD,RODNEY
222-33-4444
LOCATION:GEN MED DATE ORDERED: 01/15/93
** COLLECTED: 12/26/92 11:00 **
PRACTITIONER: BABCOCK,LISA LAB ARRIVAL: 01/15/93 08:23
This scenario occurred because routine ^LRUPT was using the wrong year when
looking for information in the ACCESSION file (#68.) LRUPT has now been
corrected to use the correct year. NOIS: SYR-0193-10004
10. TYPO IN CODE EXECUTED WITH THE DISPLAY STAINS/BLOCKS FOR A PATIENT
[LRAPST] OPTION
Documentation Retrieval
The carat (^) is missing from the global entry in routine AU^LRAPST1 which
causes an error that no autopsy accession exists for this patient even if one
does exist. The carat has now been added and the routine will now properly
indicate whether an autopsy accession number exists for the patient.
NOIS: AUG-0398-32638
11. REPORTS NOT QUEUED TO THE COMPLETED REPORT QUEUE
A modification to routine LRAPM, released in patch LR*5.2*231, inadvertently
=======================
prevents reports generated by the [LRAPM] Modify anat path
gross/micro/dx/frozen section option, from being queued to the completed
reports print queue if the patient is male. The code has now been corrected.
NOIS: There is no NOIS associated with this item.
12. ANATOMIC PATHOLOGY REPORTS BECOME UNRELEASED WHEN NO CHANGES ARE MADE
USING THE MODIFY ANAT PATH GROSS/MICRO/DX/FROZEN SECTION [LRAPM] OPTION
A problem was reported regarding the use of the Modify anat path
gross/micro/dx/frozen section [LRAPM] option to modify the gross description
of a released/verified report. Even though the user returned through all the
prompts without making changes and the report is tagged as not modified, the
report became "UNRELEASED" making it unavailable for providers to view. This
error has now been corrected so that if no changes are made to the report, the
release date/time remains in place. NOIS: BHS-0600-12155

The Laboratory Management Index Program (LMIP) workload collection
software will automatically make additions to the WKLD CODE as required.
DO NOT USE FileMan ENTER EDIT option TO MAKE ADDITIONS TO THE WKLD

NOTE: The WKLD CODE (#64) file is not replaced. The file will be checked
for name spelling errors and entries changed if required. If names are
changed, they will be reported via mail message to the local mail group
LMI. In previous releases, some names were exported with trailing spaces.
This will be corrected with this patch install.
This patch will replace the LAB NLT/CPT CODES (#64.81) file during
installation:
This patch also updates the LAB DSS LAR EXTRACT (#64.036) file data
dictionary to include two new fields. SPECIMEN COLLECTION DATE (#10) and
SPECIMEN COLLECTION TIME (#11). The routine LRCAPDAR has been enhanced to
populate the new fields.

NOTE: LAB DSS LAR EXTRACT file is used exclusively by the laboratory DSS
API for collecting clinical data. This file is not used or managed by the
Lab Service software.
This patch includes a new (3rd) cross reference in the WKLD CODE (#64)
file on the CODE (#18) subfile, CODE (.01) field. The entire file is cross
referenced using the "AB" subscript.

The WKLD SUFFIX CODES (#64.2) file contains a new field VENDOR (#19). This
field is used to describe the original manufacturer for this suffix.
Update Logic:
The KIDS install populates National Laboratory Tests (NLT) with a
complete listing of new and previously released codes if they are missing.
These files are:
WKLD CODE (#64)
WKLD SUFFIX CODES (#64.2)
WKLD CODE LAB SECT (#64.21)
WKLD ITEM FOR COUNT (#64.22)
WKLD INSTRUMENT MANUFACTURER (#64.3)
LAB NLT/CPT CODES (#64.81) Only used during patch installation.
NOTE: WKLD CODE (#64) file or any entries in the file are never deleted.
Once an entry has been added to the WKLD CODE file, it remains for the
life of the file.
All changes have been reviewed by the VISTA Blood Bank Developer and found
The LAB NLT/CPT CODES (#64.81) file is populated with a complete list of
all released WKLD CODE procedures.
The post install routine reads entries from the LAB NLT/CPT CODES file.
The install software first determines if the WKLD CODE number already
exist in WKLD CODE. If the WKLD CODE number exists, the spelling is
checked and changed if required.
If the WKLD CODE does not already exist, the new WKLD CODE is added to
the WKLD CODE file.
If a spelling change was required or a new WKLD CODE is added to the

- APPLIED BY: USER,ONE
- DESCRIPTION:
This is a Patch for a Patch.
1. The routine LRAUSTA which was supposed to be part of patch LR*5.2*72
was never exported with the patch. Since this report is rarely run by the
sites, this was never noticed during the testing of the patch
2. During the LRAPFIX data conversion, the ^LR("AAUA", node was rebuilt
using the new accession # format, however the old ^LR(AAUA", node was not
deleted. This is why the routine was picking up the Autopsies logged in
previous to the loading of the patch.
The other problem was reported by the Bronx. A null subscript error would
occur during the option Malignancy review [LRAPQAMR] if the following
conditions were met:
1. There were reports positive for malignancy during the time period
the report was requested for.
2. The user responds "YES" to the prompt:
Do you want corresponding permanent pathology reports to print
following search ? NO// Y (YES)
It was discovered that 2 separate AP reports were not functioning
The null subscript error would occur because the routine LRAPQAMR was
attempting to get a patient's LRDFN from the ^LR(LRXREF,LRY,LRAN,0)
reference when in fact this reference should have been updated to reflect
the new format of this node after the data conversion of LR*5.2*72. The
correct reference should have been ^LR(LRXREF,LRY,LRABV,LRAN,0). The code
was changed to this new reference as well as inserting Quit statements for
the $O command.
correctly after installation of LR*5.2*72
Both of these issues will be resolved with this patch.
First--It was discovered after patch LR*5.2*72 was released that the
Autopsy Status Report did not capture Autopsies done after the load date
of the patch. This actually is the symptom of two separate problems:

b. Routine LRGV1 contained locks on ^LAH global without timeouts.
Defect corrected by adding timeouts to locking of ^LAH global.
c. Routine LRGV contained code to set variables IO and IOSL. Defect
corrected by removing code.
3. During patch development software review the following defects were
identified and corrected.
a. Comments associated with results could possibly be duplicated
when moved from the ^LAH global to the LAB DATA file (#63), CHEM,
HEM, TOX, RIA, SER, etc. subfile (#4), COMMENT field (#.99).
Defect corrected in routine LRGV2.
b. Monthly accession areas would not be processed. Routine LRGP1
was not calculating accession date correctly for monthly accession
areas. The defect was reported by Lloyd Milligan of Sea Island
Systems, Inc.
c. When processing/verifying by tray/cup and a corresponding entry in
the ^LAH global did not exist for the tray/cup combination then
processing would stop and leave remaining entries unprocessed.
Routine LRGV will now continue to process remaining entries.
DESCRIPTION
d. If results exist for different accession areas but the same
accession numbers then routine LRGP was not handling these results
properly and keeping them separate. Routine has been corrected to
keep results for different accessions but the same accession number
separate based on accession area and accession date.
e. Option Group unverified review (EA, EL, EW) [LRGP] could print
results for accessions that are not for the same accession area,
accession date and accession number. Routine LRGP will now skip result

data in the ^LAH global if the data does not belong to the same accession
area, accession date and accession number.
f. Option Group unverified review (EA, EL, EW) [LRGP] could print
the wrong date/time on the printed report if the reported was queued
via TaskMan. Option was printing the date/time that the user originally
setup the report. Report will now print the date/time that the report
actually starts to print.
g. Option Group verify (EA, EL, EW) [LRGV] would verify flagged results
This patch will address fixes to defects reported in NOIS LEX-1098-42357

indicated that these results should not be group verified. The option
will now only verify results that are critical or have a delta check
when the user indicates that flagged results should be verified.
h. Option Group verify (EA, EL, EW) [LRGV] was storing verified results

4. During patch development/software review the following defects were
identified and corrected.
A. In the option Result NLT Auto Linker [LR7O AUTO RESULT NLT] if
a user requested printing of a List of Result NLT Linked Codes
and device selection was unsuccessful or aborted then the Kernel IO*
variables were not being restored to the user's home device. This
patch will now call HOME^%ZIS when device selection is unsuccessful
or aborted by the user to restore the user's home device settings.
B. If a user selects the semi-auto method of linking, the option was
exiting the user from the option when a Result NLT was not selected
and mapped to an entry in the LABORATORY TEST file (#60). This patch
will allow the user to continue mapping tests. To exit or abort from
the option the user should enter a "^" which will return the user to
the Kernel menu system.
C. The entry in LABORATORY TEST file (#60) was only being locked
when using the manual method of linking. The Semi-auto method was
not locking the file. This patch will lock the entry being edited
in LABORATORY TEST file (#60) when either method is selected.
5. When mapping certain LOINC codes a FileMan error of 'undefined
variable ^(4) is' generated because of the lookup screen. This error
has been corrected.

security concerns are still being debated by the Department of Veterans
Affairs (VA) and are awaiting resolution. At present, a VA medical center,
which intends to utilize this software in conjunction with an interface to
a commercial reference laboratory or other non-VA information system entity,
will need to coordinate with the vendor an acceptable communication method.
Any implementation will need to be approved by the facility and VISN
Information Security Officer (ISO) and meet current VA security requirements
for external electronic connections. See VHA Directive 6212, Security of
External Electronic Connections and VHA Directive 6210, Automated Information

Implementation of a HL7 messaging interface between the VA VistA Laboratory

- VistA Laboratory LEDI II software.
- certified communication software and hardware
- non-VA information system capable of sending and receiving laboratory HL7

completion, there will be an END alert for each START alert for each
batch sequence number.
It has been seen at some test sites that the LRDFN may not be in the
proper form. Test sites have seen the LRDFN set to an inverse date/time
(LRIDT) value, and in some cases the LRDFN contained a decimal
(ex.123.5). If such a situation is discovered during the LOINC mapping
process, a properly formatted LRDFN will be created in the ^LR(0) global
as the next available LRDFN.
the existing LOINC mapping configuration defined in WKLD CODE (#64) file.
There is a special sequence number (9999999) assigned to those LRDFNs
having LRIDT like format. This sequence will only be established if
required.
Most sites will not have a 9999999 batch sequence number.

After successful completion of LOINC mapping for all tasks, the members
of the G.LMI mail group will receive two types of notifications:
1. MailMan message containing all tests that were not LOINC mapped
2. Mailman message containing all tests that were mapped. This message is
designed to be imported into a non VistA spread sheet program.
Using these two reports, the LIM will be able to determine mapping
completeness and identify systematic mapping errors.
The historical mapping is an option that cannot be queued. Installation

=================
D. Modify LOINC Historical Mapping [LR LOINC HISTORICAL MODIFY]
This is a very powerful utility option to be used to reconcile previous
LOINC historical mapping. A knowledgeable LOINC mapper (Laboratory
Information Manager) is required to properly implement this functionality.
After the initial historical mapping has been completed, adjustments
maybe required to modify the LOINC code lookup parameters to properly map
past results. Careful review of current LOINC mapping should be done to
establish IF there is a systematic error in LOINC code assignments. File
definition corrections should be done to prevent future LOINC mapping
errors. Re-running LAB DATA LOINC Mapping [LR LOINC HISTORICAL MAPPER 63]
option will correct incorrectly assigned LOINC code problems.
In those situations when editing LOINC mapping definition is not
desirable, this option provides a method for the user to intervene in the
The Historical Mapper functions should be run during a 24 hour period of
mapping lookup logic for specific tests.
The user is able to select a lab test(s) [Atomic or Panel], then assign a
specific suffix code to be used during LOINC mapping logic. In addition
the user is able to force the Result NLT CODE (#64.1) of LABORATORY TEST
(#60) for the test and the designated suffix code pair to override
previous LOINC mapping.
This is a very powerful feature, great care and study of systematic
errors should be used before attempting correct past LOINC mapping

systematic errors.
After the user has completed the modify LOINC mapping procedures, the LAB
DATA LOINC Mapping option is called. All considerations of this option
still apply. Most notably, only performing this mapping exercise during
week ends or in a 24 period of lowest system activity. Even with the
increased logic iterations, the process should complete within the 24 hr
window of time.
This option will allow the user to manage how a specific data name (test)
will be mapped to LOINC Codes for historical data. The user is able to
override file definitions to correct past LOINC mappings.

patch will determine the appropriate normal range for the result by
resolving the $S( statement using the age of the patient at the time the
specimen was collected. The $SELECT statement will be replaced with the

b. Routine LRFASTS called by option Fast Bypass Data Entry/Verify
[LRFASTS] does not handle non-daily accession areas correctly. The routine
was using the order date as the accession date which is only correct when
the accession area associated with a test is daily. LRFASTS has been
corrected to retrieve the accession area, date and number for a test from
LAB ORDER ENTRY file (#69). It will now function correctly when processing
acccessions from non-daily acession areas, i.e. monthly, quarterly and
yearly.
c. Routine LRVERA was handling accession selection similiar to LRWU4.
This routine has been changed to call LRWU4.
d. The entry for Quarterly accession transform in the EXECUTE CODE file
(#62.07) contains code that creates an invalid FileMan date for the
accession date. The post install for this patch will check the EXECUTE

VISTA BLOOD BANK Software as defined by VHA DIRECTIVE 97-033 titled VISTA
BLOOD BANK SOFTWARE VERSION 5.2.
PROBLEM: CPRS calls a Lab API [INTERIM^LR7OGM] that extracts and formats
lab data for reports on the LAB tab. For results longer than
7 characters, the data is being truncated and formatted incorrectly.
RISK ANALYSIS: Changes made by patch LR*5.2*282 have no effect on Blood
Bank software functionality, therefore RISK is none.
EFFECT ON BLOOD BANK FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS: Patch LR*5.2*282 does not
alter or modify any software design safeguards or safety critical elements
functions.
POTENTIAL IMPACT ON SITES: Patch LR*5.2*282 contains no changes to
routines identified in Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Directive
97-033. There is no adverse potential to sites.
VALIDATION REQUIREMENTS BY OPTION: There are no required validation
CPRS calls a Lab API [INTERIM^LR7OGM] that extracts and formats
scenarios to be completed by sites after installing LR*5.2*282.

assigned to a Patient as defined by an entry in the PATIENT (#2) file,
the specified CPT codes are passed immediately to the Laboratory/PCE API.
The date/time of the visit is set to specimen collection date/time. If
the time is not specified, a default of 12:01 is used. The PCE API
returns the visit number which is stored in the PCE ENC (#30) field of
the ACCESSION NUMBER (#1) sub-file of the DATE (#.01) sub-file of the

The software will also store the WKLD CODES associated with the CPT codes

does not take into account the morbidity associated with dialysis that will

Raye-Anne Dorn, National Tumor Registry Coordinator, has submitted a New
Service Request for the creation of a laboratory test, the estimated
Glomerular Filtration Rate, eGFR. Thakor G. Patel, MD, Chief of Renal
Diseases at Veterans Administration Central Office, endorses the request. The
endorser is seeking an alternative to the creatinine clearance test, a
laboratory test that measures renal function and requires all urine collected
existing panel.
over a 24-hour period. The request cites the difficulty of collecting such a
specimen, particularly from elderly patients. Additionally, the Veterans
Health Administration (VHA) Renal Program Office has recommended a standard
process throughout VHA for performing and reporting the eGFR. The request is
to release this locally created delta check as Class 1 software.
The four-variable MDRD Study equation is recommended. Although it has
short-comings, it has been more rigorously evaluated than the Cockcroft and
Gault equation, and performs better in patients with kidney disease, gives
results in units of ml/min/1.73 m^2, and does not require measurement of
weight. Performance can be improved by calibration of the VA lab results
with the MDRD Study lab (Cleveland Clinic). Is there a VA "central lab,"
that other labs relate to? If so, it should be possible to "calibrate" that
lab to the MDRD Study lab. (Of course, there is no Cockcroft Gault central
lab, so calibration is an uncorrectable error with the use of the Cockcroft
and Gault equation.)
The view is that it is difficult to interpret GFR values above about 60
ml/min/1.73 m^2, due to differences in creatinine calibration among labs, and
uncertainty in the measurement of GFR in that range. This is the reason
-----------------------------
that the NKF defined CKD Stage 3 as GFR <60, and that there are few
differences in the action plan for CKD stages 1 and 2 (kidney damage and
GFR either greater than or less than 90). It is important to instruct
practitioners about the limitations of GFR estimates above 60.
Stages of chronic kidney disease (R, O). Among individuals with chronic kidney
disease, the stage is defined by the level of GFR, with higher stages
representing lower GFR levels.

chronic kidney disease can be prevented through early detection and treatment.
Table 12 illustrates the classification of individuals based on the presence
or absence of markers of kidney disease and level of GFR, according to
definition and staging of chronic kidney disease proposed by this guideline.
In addition, it includes columns for the presence or absence of high blood
pressure, because of the complex relationship of high blood pressure and
chronic kidney disease.
All individuals with GFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 for 3 months are classified as
Earlier stages of chronic kidney disease can be detected through routine
having chronic kidney disease, irrespective of the presence or absence of
kidney damage. The rationale for including these individuals is that reduction
in kidney function to this level or lower represents loss of half or more of
the adult level of normal kidney function, which may be associated with a
number of complications (Part 6).
All individuals with kidney damage are classified as having chronic kidney
disease, irrespective of the level of GFR. The rationale for including
individuals with GFR 60 mL/min/1.73 m2 is that GFR may be sustained at normal
or increased levels despite substantial kidney damage and that patients with
laboratory measurements.

disease: loss of kidney function and development of cardiovascular disease

(Levey AS, Ann Intern Med 1999; l30:877-884). GFR is expressed as ml/min/l.73
m^2. Required variables include Pcr (mg/dl), age (y), race (black vs.
prevalence, treatment patterns, outcomes, and cost of kidney failure treated
non-black), gender, serum urea nitrogen (SUN, mg/dl), and albumin (alb.g/dl).
In clinical practice and in retrospective studies, measurements of SUN and
alb may not be available. Below, we list the full MDRD Study prediction
equation (6 variables), as well as alternative prediction equations including
fewer variables derived from measurements in the same 1628 patients.
GFR = 170 x Pcr-0.999 x age -0.176 x 1.180 (if black)
x 0.762 (if female) x SUN-0.170 x alb+0.318
GFR = 270 x Pcr-l.007 x age -0.180 x 1.178 (if black)
x 0.755 (if female) x SUN-0.169
by dialysis and transplantation, the most severe stage of chronic kidney
GFR = 186 x Pcr-l.154 x age -0.203 x 1.212 (if black)
x 0.742 (if female)
The table below compares the performance of these equations and the CG
equation.

A=absolute value of the median (50th), 75th and 90th percentiles of the
distribution of the differences between measured GFR and predicted GFR or Ccr
for each equation (includes bias correction for CG equation). We conclude
that simplified versions of the MDRD Study prediction equation provide more
accurate estimates of GFR than measured or estimated creatinine clearance.

2. The comment "MISSING PARAMETER" generated when the patient's race is
'Undeclared' or 'Unanswered' is changed to "For eGFR: Race unknown, if

3. The delta check will determine the patient's race using the following
criteria:
a. If specimen for a PATIENT file (#2) patient, the race is determine
using supported API VADPT.
b. If specimen for a REFERRAL PATIENT file (#67) patient, the race is
determined based on RACE field (#.06) in REFERRAL PATIENT file.
This patch corrects several defects reported with the eGFR delta check
c. All other patient types will not use race as a parameter in the
calculation. These patient types will generate the 'race unknown'
comment.
4. During patch development it was determined that the lock placed on the
accession being verified could be prematurely released. This defect could
allow two or more users to edit the accession concurrently. The delta check
has been changed to eliminate the releasing of the lock. The lock will now
be released by the lab verifying options.

5. During patch testing a potential safety issue was identified with the
delta check with regards to display of abnormal/critical creatinine values.
The delta check displayed eGFR exception messages as part of the display
of creatinine abnormal/critical flags. These eGFR exception messages will
be added as accession comments and not displayed as part of the creatinine
result display.
The eGFR exception messages that will be added as comments are.

6. NOIS FGH-0304-32518 reported the eGFR calculation was being performed
and the result added to the accession when there was no ordered test for
the eGFR. This prevents user from verifying and releasing test results.
The eGFR delta check will check for the eGFR test in the test editing
profile selected by the user. If the eGFR test is not in the editing
profile then it will not be calculated. If the creatinine value is
changed, the eGFR test is not in the editing profile and there is a
previous eGFR result then the exception message "For eGFR: **eGFR not in
test editing profile - Creatinine Changed**" will be generated
contain any changes to the VISTA BLOOD BANK Software as defined by VHA
7. When the eGFR delta check is called by option Group data review
(verified & EM) [LRGVP] the delta check will quit with no action taken.

errors from Austin that caused their data to be rejected.
The modifications included in this patch are:
1) Test patients are not included in the EPI data sent to Austin.
2) A string length error was fixed, MERGEOUT+34^HLTF2:1,%DSM-E-STRLEN. This
error was due to PID segments that were over 245 characters long.
3) The 410 errors, discharge date after processing date, was corrected. This
problem was due to patients with a future discharge date. This patch resolves
DIRECTIVE 99-053 titled VISTA BLOOD BANK SOFTWARE VERSION 5.2.
this problem by not sending the discharge date to Austin if the discharge date
is greater than the last day of the month of the extracted data.
4) An undefined error is fixed. In the Print Detailed Verification Report
[LREPI VERIFICATION REPORT] option an undefined error occurs when an "^" is
entered at the "Select Pathogen: " prompt. Also, when selecting the Detailed
Verification Report, the processing period is now displayed for easier
selection.
5) The 605 errors are corrected. This problem was due to a missing date in the
BACT RPT DATE APPROVED (#11 ) field of MICROBIOLOGY (#63.05) subfile of LAB
DATA (#63) file for organism IDs and a "0" was being sent to Austin. This
patch resolves this problem by sending a blank field when the completed date
is missing instead of "0".
6) A processing routine is added to the LREPI CLIENT protocol. This resolves
missing processing routine HL7 errors.

- DESCRIPTION:
VISTA Laboratory Package patch LR*5.2*286 contains changes to software
found to have no impact on the VISTA BLOOD BANK SOFTWARE version 5.2
12. Enter/verify data (auto instrument) [LRVR] and Enter/verify/modify
data (manual) [LRENTER] options will display patient information from
PAT. INFO. field (#.091) in LAB DATA file (#63) during result verification.
(E3R #13408)
13. Alignment of test results during verification process has been adjusted
to avoid display of previous and current test results together. Results
will be displayed right-justified under the date/time of each specimen.
control functions.
14. NOIS ALB-0100-50284, FAV-1103-70892 reported a failure of UID creation
and storage when creating a non-daily accession that is in common with
another accession area. The failure occurs on the creation of the first
accession for a given accession area and date. After the first accession
for an accession date is created and stored in ACCESSION file (#68)
subsequent accessions have the UID stored properly. Failure was due to
missing subfile zeroth nodes for the ACCESSION DATE multiple (#68.01) and
ACCESSION NUMBER multiple (#68.02) of the ACCESSION file (#68) when calling
FileMan to store the UID. Routine LRWLST1 will now check and set the
subfile's zeroth nodes before calling FileMan.
FileMan calls have been converted from classic FileMan DIE calls to
FileMan Database Server calls (DBS). When an error condition is
encountered during a FileMan DBS call, the Laboratory package will
generate a mail message with the subject "FileMan DBS call failed during
accessioning in routine LRWLST1". This message will be sent to the local
mail group "LMI". It will contain debugging information to assist site
and National VistA Support in resolving the condition that produced the
error.
RISK ANALYSIS: Changes made by patch LR*5.2*286 have no effect on Blood
15. NOIS BON-0196-71728 reported a problem with storing the appropriate
treating specialty associated with an accession. A bad or incorrect
pointer to FACILITY TREATING SPECIALTY file (#45.7) could be stored in
the TREATING SPECIALTY (#6.6) field within the ACCESSION NUMBER field
(#68.02) multiple within the ACCESSION DATE field (#68.01) multiple of
the ACCESSION file (#68). When a specimen is accessioned for a
non-inpatient and the user selects an inpatient ordering location the
software would use the specialty from SPECIALITY file (#42.4) that
is associated with the WARD LOCATION file (#42) entry linked to the
HOSPITAL LOCATION file (#44).
Bank software functionality, therefore RISK is none.
Routine LRWLST1 will determine treating specialty based on the
associated TREATING SPECIALTY field (#9.5) in the HOSPITAL LOCATION file
(#44) when the patient is not an inpatient. When a patient is an inpatient
then treating specialty will be determined from the PATIENT file (#2),
TREATING SPECIALTY field (.103). Treating specialty will only be stored
in ACCESSION file (#68) when the patient is from PATIENT file (#2).
16. The following defects were identified during the software review as
part of patch development.
a. Ordering location and ordering provider will not be stored on
accessions that are related to LAB CONTROL NAME file (#62.3) entries.
b. During accessioning if accession area is locked by another process,
the message displayed to user was "Accession area is locked by another
user." Message will now include the name of the accession area that
the software is waiting on lock.
c. Interim report options and displays will display month portion of
EFFECT ON BLOOD BANK FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS: Patch LR*5.2*286 does not

designation to eliminate potential confusion with day portion of dates.
Time is displayed using 24 hour time format.
d. Interim report could display the wrong ordering and collecting site
when the specimen was received from an integrated facility. Report will
display the correct ordering and collecting site.
e. Referral Patient Multi-purpose Accession option [LR LEDI] was
prompting the user for CPRS Nature of Order which is not used during

accessioning of non-PATIENT file (#2) patients. Routine LROW3 is
modified to only prompt the user for CPRS Nature of Order when
accessioning a patient from the PATIENT file (#2).
f. Previous test versions of previous LEDI versions may have installed
two versions of the "D" cross reference in LAB PENDING ORDERS ENTRY file
(#69.6). The post-install will delete and reindex the "D" cross reference
on file #69.6.
g. Entering of accession number during lab results verification will

check for invalid values or numbers out of range (1-999999).
17. Referral Patient Multi-purpose Accession option [LR LEDI] will check
for pending orders when performing accessioning without a bar code scanner.
It will display to the user and store order comments that accompanies
electronic orders with order in LAB ORDER ENTRY file (#69).
18. When using the Enter/verify/modify data (manual) option [LRENTER] to
amend previously released results user can now enter their verifying
initials in mixed case.
19. NOIS CHS-0303-40534 reported a defect which prevented results for
reflex tests added to a LEDI order at the host laboratory being returned
electronically to the collecting laboratory. Routine LRWLST11 was storing
the collecting site as both the collecting site and ordering site in the
order created in LAB ORDER ENTRY file (#69). When a collecting site is a
member of an integrated facility the collecting site is the site collecting
the specimen and the ordering site is the primary facility of the
integrated institution. Reflex test added by the host site would have the
incorrect ordering site assigned which prevents the LEDI software from
controlled by VHA DIRECTIVE 99-053, titled VISTA BLOOD BANK SOFTWARE
POTENTIAL IMPACT ON SITES: This patch contains changes to a Data
returning the results of the reflex test to the collecting facility. Defect
has been corrected to store the correct ordering and collecting sites on
LEDI accessions.
20. NOIS BRK-0499-10720, MAR-0603-21152 reported a defect during lab
result verification using option Enter/verify/modify data (manual)
[LRENTER] which caused the previous patient demographics to be displayed
when entering results on an accession. If the previous selected accession
was in an uncollected state, the option was skipping the uncollected
accession and incrementing the default accession number to the next
Dictionary identified in Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Directive
available accession. If the user selects this or another accession, the
patient demographics of the selected accession were not being displayed.
Instead, the patient demographics of the uncollected accession were
displayed. Routine LRVER will now display the patient demographics of the
currently selected accession.
21. NOIS SFC-1103-60132 reported a defect during display of lab results
in the CPRS GUI. When a critical flag becomes part of the data for a
patient in CPRS, the line of data containing the flag becomes split
after the * following the high or low flag, and the units along with
99-053. The changes have no effect in Blood Bank functionality or medical
the reference range gets bumped to the next line down. Routine LR7OGMP
increases the space allocated to display this information from 37 to 38
characters to display units/normals on same line.
22. When displaying results that are a Set of Codes data type, the result
will be displayed using the external value for the set of codes.
23. NOIS NYH-0700-11942 reported a defect with critical value flag not
being triggered when entering a value of 0. Value of 0 will be evaluated
when performing high/low/critical value checks.
device control functions. There is no adverse potential to sites.
24. When verifying results from a reference laboratory using Enter/verify
data (auto instrument) option [LRVR], any test results that have not
been verified will be displayed to the user after verification. The display
will list the test names, results, abnormal flags and units if available.
This display will list the test(s) as not reviewed. This may indicate that
additional or reflex testing has been added by the reference laboratory.
These additional tests may need to be added to the accession to process
these results.
25. During verification of laboratory results, comments for a previous
result are displayed along with the previous result when entering
results manually or by automated instrument for user selected tests
(E3R #18490). Users can indicate which tests should have previous
test comments displayed during verification by flagging the test using
General Lab User Parameters option [LR USER PARAM] located on the
Information-help menu [LRHELP].
26. NOIS SDC-0904-61304 Reported a defect with the display of text
results in CPRS when using the Laboratory Results-All Test By Date and
VALIDATION REQUIREMENTS BY OPTION: There are no required validation
Laboratory Results-Selected Tests By Date. When a text result was
displayed that exceeded 10 characters and the test has no units or
normals specified, the display of the result was corrupted with <spaces>
inserted into the text. Test results will be displayed without corruption.
Units, reference ranges, and site codes will be displayed on the following
line when test results print in area usually reserved for these parameters.
27. NOIS IND-0498-42538 reported a defect in display of test comments during
lab test result verification when encountering an 'end-of-page' condition.
All test comments will now be displayed.

PATIENT SAFETY ISSUES RESOLVED IN THIS PATCH:
============================================
PSI-040260/NOIS HVH-0604-10572 - "Not Performed test Resulted
- No Alert Generated"
This patch corrects defects in software used to set laboratory tests
to a Not-Performed (NP) state. The NP state was introduced by patch
LR*5.2*221 in 1999. The functionality introduced by this patch replaced
the "delete-a-test" functionality. Instead of deleting tests, tests are
now set to a not-performed state.
However, tests in the NP state could still be edited such that the NP
state is replaced with an actual result. Results entered into NP tests
were not treated in the same manner as results entered through the normal
results entry pathways. File updates to ACCESSION file (#68), LAB ORDER
ENTRY file (#69), and ORDER file (#100) as well as alerts were not
generated. This situation was documented in NOIS HVH-0604-10572
========================================
- "Not Performed test Resulted - No Alert Generated". This was identified
as a potential patient safety risk. With concurrence from the Pathology
& Laboratory Medicine Program Office, the appropriate mechanism for
handling the situation is to disable editing of NP tests. If the test is
designated as NP and the user wants to edit the test result, they will
now have to order the test(s) in a new accession.

1) Currently the ADD^LRWOMEN utility notifies a Women's Health package
utility whenever a Cytology or Surgical Pathology report is verified for a
female patient. This functionality was provided with LR*5.2*231.
After installation of patch LR*5.2*311, the ADD^LRWOMEN utility will also

patients. Integration Agreement #4287 grants the LABORATORY package
permission to call the ORB3LAB routine.
2) The code in the MOVE entry point of the LRWOMEN routine was replaced
with a QUIT command. With the release of LR*5.2*259, this entry point is
no longer called. The entry point will be deleted in a future patch.
3) A new entry point, SNOMED, is added to the LRWOMEN routine. This entry
point is called by the new indexes created with this patch (see #4

This patch will completely remove certain files, replace the files with a
standardized copy and then re-point the saved field entries to the
standardized copy. It is high desirable to determine that current fields
and files are free of incorrect data. This will ensure that the patch
installation will not introduce any new errors.
Failure to ensure FileMan verification of fields option can be run
without generating warnings will result in unresolved errors, which could
have unpredictable results. The patch installation will not be affected
by an invalid field. The patch will generate error message indicating
those files/fields that could not be successfully re-pointed after the

verify field warnings. Errors or warnings in other fields WILL NOT affect
the post-install re-pointing process but should be addressed as soon a
possible.
To ensure that there are not any existing pointer problems, files and
attempting to install this patch significantly increases the risk of

The most common verify field errors are:
1. Fields not properly cross referenced. This can be resolved by
re-indexing the file.
2. Fields failing input transform. This can be resolved by either editing

the field and entering appropriate data; or deleting the existing data in
the field.
Note: When performing FM Verify fields, an error will be produced in the
TOPOGRAPHY FIELD((#61) file, SNOMED CODE (#2)field by the input transform
logic error.
Example:
ENTRY# NAME ERROR
1 RIGHT LUNG "28100" fails Input Transform

This input transform logic error will be corrected with the installation
of this patch.
** NO PRE-INSTALL CORRECTIVE ACTION IS REQUIRED. **
When the Verify Field option is run on the various files, several
different kinds of warnings can be generated. It isn't possible to
describe a resolution method for the type of warning discovered using the
FM Verify field option, but here are some techniques used during testing.
If you require additional technical assistance, contact the EVS group.

contained in WKLD CODE (#64) file if any are present.
Those duplicates listed with a proceeding '*' SHOULD be resolved
This patch will update the WKLD CODE (#64) file and replace several
before installation of the patch. However, the patch will install if the
duplicates are present during installation.
Those duplicates listed with a proceeding '+' will be deleted by the
pre-install program. No action is required.
Those duplicates that do not have a preceding character will not
affect the installation. Those entries that do not have a proceeding
character are locally created NLT codes and are provided to indicate to
the local user that multiples do exist. This information maybe useful
when doing searches on the WKLD DATA (#64.1) file for a particular
test(s).

file duplicates. This patch will also correct certain field definitions
Routines:
=====================
LRDAGE
This patch contains a NEW age calculation routine, LRDAGE. This routine
is used to calculate the age of the patient based on when the specimen
was collected instead of date of birth (DOB). For example, if the
specimen was collected one year ago, the age will be a year less than
today's age. The routine is particularly useful in pediatric patient's
normal ranges. This age is used to determine the appropriate normal range
based on collection date. This patch expands the age format to include
that produce invalid warnings produced by the FileMan Verify Field
day, month or year designation. This could affect the $SELECT statement
evaluation of normal range. Sites are advised to review $SELECT statement
in light of this age format. The format of the age is as follows:
1hr - 30 days = 1dy - 30dy
1 - 23 months = 1mo - 24mo
>23 month = 2yr - 999yr
The default age of 99yr is return if a computation error occurs because
of incorrect values passed to age API. Technical information for the API
call is contained in the routine documentation section.
The functionality of this routine is not implemented by the patch
option. In order to implement the numerous file/field corrections, it is
installation. However, sites requiring the ability to determine age to
this degree, may wish to migrate their local M code in the EXECUTE CODE
(#62.07) and DELTA CHECKS (#62.1) files to make use of this routine.

Deprecated (DEL) are not used in your current mapping of LOINC codes. In
some cases, deprecated LOINC codes [LAB LOINC (#95.3) file, MAP TO (#21)
field] will have the suggested replacement LOINC code populated.

The currently installed files are not compatible with the incoming LOINC
V2.13. Therefore these files are being completely removed and a fresh
5 SYSTEM SYSTEM
version is being installed. When the new versions are installed certain
pointers in other files could be broken or incorrect.
To address this problem, the pre-install routine will save the existing
data in external format in the ^XTMP("LR302",FILE,IEN,FLD)=DATA
This file will be purged in 90 days.
All the fields that point to the replaced files will be saved before the
old files are purged.

1) Add any missing WKLD CODE to your system and create a mail message
containing the added codes. If this process is successful the LAB NLT/CPT

2) Compare your previous WKLD SUFFIX CODES (#64.2) to the file installed
by the patch. A MailMan message is created listing any locally added.
These codes must be requested via the mail group indicated in the patch
description. Codes should not be locally added to any of the NLT Package
files.

Identifier (EII) for each test result when the long or extended format is
chosen. The EII contains the vendor's make/model/serial number of the
instrument/equipment that produced the test result. When the vendor's
instrument interface transmits this information, it will be stored with
the test results.
4. CPRS Lab Display of Recent Results will display performing laboratory
name and address of tests in accordance with College of American Pathology

discontinue of a patient's laboratory orders. OERR also provides checks
in the software to establish whether the patient event is new or an edit
to an existing event.
Changes include:
The Lab's process has caused erroneous auto discontinuance of laboratory
orders because it does not check if a new movement is actually tied to
the patient's current admission. In the case outlined by the Patient
Safety Issue (PSI) report it appeared that a user deleted and re-entered
a movement for a prior admission to make a correction. Since it was a
new movement the Lab code executed and the orders were discontinued.
This problem would especially impact sites with patients that are
transferred from the acute hospital to the nursing home.

Technical Description
=====================
When the DGPM MOVEMENT EVENTS of the PROTOCOL file (#101) is triggered
the LR7O MOVEMENT EVENT protocol may be called (if it is an item of the
DGPM MOVEMENT EVENTS protocol). In this situation the business rule
processing in the LABORATORY package fails to make all of the needed
checks to properly determine if the order should be discontinued. If
Lab's logic discontinues the order there will be no order for OERR to
Field #150.3 (CANCEL ON ADMIT) - Removed
apply its more detailed set of business rules against when the OERR code
is called from the patient movement event.
Lab will no longer perform any package-level checks for order
auto-discontinuance based on patient movements. These checks will be
performed by the OERR package. This change is accomplished by:
Deletion of PROTOCOL file (#101) entries:
LR7O MOVEMENT EVENT and LR7O MOVEMENT EVENT TASK
Deletion of routine LR7OEVNT

If the software wanted to assign the normally generated accession UID
1550180008 to accession area 25, accession date of Jan 18 2005, accession

Note: The UID generating software will always produce an unique number.
No two accessions will ever have the same UID based on the "C" cross reference.
The routine LROC is modified to check for purged accessions and remove
purged accession's UID from the "C" and "D" cross reference of the

continue to create UIDs using the "00" prefix when an existing accession
is still currently on the system and using the UID. This is to assure that
the UID assigned to an accession is unique. The Laboratory software is
capable of handling UIDs correctly when the UID has a "00" prefix. There
is no inherent requirement that a specific UID conform exactly to its
related accession.

The post-install of this patch tasks a back-ground job to cleanup any

Under the auspices of the Program Office for Infectious Diseases
The Laboratory EPI program is designed to automatically provide data
on emerging pathogens to Veterans Affairs Headquarters (VAHQ)
without additional individual data entry at the site level. The data will
be sent to Austin Automation Center (AAC) for initial processing and
coupling with denominator data related to workload. VAHQ data

Two test sites reported an undefined error related to the variable SEX
which contains the patient's sex. During analysis of the reported error,
it was determined, by the laboratory development team, that the variable
that referenced the patient's sex was being killed between accessions when
a laboratory order created two or more accessions.
The problem occurs when laboratory users enter laboratory test results
using the VistA Laboratory option "Accession order then immediately enter

data [LR ACC THEN DATA]". If the laboratory order being processed
creates two or more accessions, the second and any subsequent accessions,
may calculate age and/or sex based normals and abnormals incorrectly.
We believe this to be a pre-existing problem; however, we cannot
determine how long the problem has been occurring. It is unknown as to
whether any specific incidents have occurred if any. Also, but most
importantly, no patients were harmed.
Solution:
The LR*5.2*328 patch was developed which will set patient's demographics
between processing of accessions when using the "Accession order then
immediately enter data [LR ACC THEN DATA]" option. This will ensure that
the patient's age/sex is defined before calculating any age/sex based
normals and determining abnormality flags.
The routine LRFAST is modified to define the applicable patient
demographic values for sex, date of birth, and age when processing each
accession associated with the order.

Update: If a selected CPT is marked inactive in file (#64), a
=================
search is made for another active CPT linked to the same workload code.
If another active CPT is found, the active CPT replaces the inactive CPT
and is passed to PCE. The following message will display if an active
replacement is found:
"The following CPT Code(s) are not selected:
Inactive in #64\Active Replacement Found: ##### \ #####; ##### \

If no active replacement found, the selected CPT is not passed to
PCE and is displayed in the following message:
Several updates and enhancements have been identified as requiring
"The following CPT Code(s) are not selected:
CPT(s) inactive in #64: #####,#####".
3. Currently: Inactive CPTs found in the WKLD CODE file (#64)
can be entered and passed to PCE for non-AP accessions. When an inactive
CPT is selected and passed to PCE, the entire order is marked invalid for
workload and no workload is passed, and a mail message is generated at the
site which states "No lab OOS location defined".
Update: If a CPT is found inactive in file #64, a search will be
immediate action after the installation of patch LR*5.2*274, AP CPT
made for another active replacement CPT linked to the same workload code.
If another active CPT is found, the active CPT replaces the inactive
CPT. If no active replacement CPT is found, the original CPT is not
passed to PCE, and thus no misleading mail message is generated.
4. Currently: Any subsequent CPT codes entered on an accession
will replace or overlay the quantity previously passed to PCE.
Example: CPT 88302 with quantity of 2 entered on day 1; PCE shows
quantity of 2. On day 2, CPT 88302 with quantity of 1 entered; PCE shows
updated quantity of 1. It should show 3.
Coding & NLT Code Update. This patch LR*5.2*308 includes updates
Update: All subsequent CPT code quantities entered for an
accession will be added to existing quantities stored in PCE.
5. Currently: If a selected CPT is not linked to a workload code
in the WKLD CODE file (#64), the CPT is passed to PCE, and the message
"Storing in LMIP". This message incorrectly identifies the CPT as
having been stored in the WKLD CODE file (#64).
Update: Selected CPT codes that are not linked to a workload code
that have been identified in the NOIS's listed below.
in the WKLD CODE file (#64) will not be passed to PCE, and the following
message will display:
"The following CPT Code(s) are not selected:
Not linked to workload in #64: #####, #####".
6. Currently: If a selected CPT code is linked to multiple workload
codes, the workload code with the lowest IEN is selected. This cannot be
changed; however, the problem has been reduced by increasing the number of
allowed ES Display Order numbers that can be assigned to a specific
CPT-workload code combination. The limit has been increased from 100 to
The following updates are included.
1000.
7. Currently: When more than one accession is entered for a patient on
the same date, at the same location, and the specimen collection date/time
does not contain a unique time, then each accession for this patient will
have the same encounter/visit number assigned when CPT codes are entered
and passed to PCE.
Update: Within Anatomic Pathology (AP) Login, the "Date/time Specimen
taken:" prompt default has been changed from TODAY (date only) to NOW
(date and time). This helps decrease the chance of having the same
encounter number assigned to more than one accession entered on the same
patient on the same date, at the same location.
8. A couple of minor cosmetic updates are included in this patch:
a. The prompt "Releasing Pathologist:" has been changed to "Provider:"
since the name entered at this prompt must be an active provider.
b. The pathologist or cytotechnologist name, if entered on the accession,
is included in the header information that displays at the time CPT coding
is entered.

BRX-0704-11083 / HD0000000070862
Problem: Pathologists are complaining about changes in procedure done
by the Electronic Signature patch. When a supplemental report is added
BANK SOFTWARE. Changes include:
the system un-verifies the parent report. This unverified report becomes
available for other Pathologists and transcriptionists to edit it. Before
once a report was verified it could not be changed. The Chief Pathologist
is very concerned with the legal and clinical ramifications of this change.
Resolution: The resolution of this issue is contained in the section
above that describes the resolution to patient safety issues #1 and #2.
CPH-0904-40215 / HD0000000070983 -
Problem: Our pathologists are concerned that post patch 259, addition of
File Sub-file Field Field Name Action
supplemental reports (additional information) must be added under MM Modify
option, thus un-releasing the original report, and necessitating the
re-release of both original and supplemental reports. They feel modified
reports should be reserved for edition/correction of previous released
reports. They feel this is a patient safety issue.
The post 259 options [LRAPDSR] and [LRAPDSS] are redundant when they are
operable only with un-released reports.
Resolution: The resolution of this issue is contained in the section
above that describes the resolution to patient safety issues #1 and #2.

MIA-0604-31201 / HD0000000070788 -
Problem: According to our lab folks in Anatomic path they used to go in to
an option called Supplementary Report, Anat Path to make a correction to
the original after it is released. They don't want to go under the edit
modify to reopen the report any ideas on how they can go into the
supplementary to attach to the original accession report or something like
that.
Resolution: The resolution of this issue is contained in the section
63 63.207 .03 RELEASE SUPP REPORT MODIFIED New Field
above that describes the resolution to patient safety issues #1 and #2.
PRO-0604-10213 / HD0000000070762 -
Problem: Our LAB Service Chief does not want IRM to install patch
LR*5.2*259 for the following Patient Safety, integrity, and additional
keystrokes reasons. For example the Surgical Pathology Reports, the new
patch, takes the Supplemental report feature away (ie. For a special
stain), it's replaced with a modified report feature, which allows you to
make changes to the original report in addition to adding. Also, while
using the modify report feature, while your in it, it makes the original
63 63.324 .03 RELEASE SUPP REPORT MODIFIED New Field
report unavailable for the Providers to view. He feels that this is a
Major Patient Safety issue, that if a Doctor is with the patient, he won't
be able to view the report.
Resolution: The resolution of this issue is contained in the section
above that describes the resolution to patient safety issues #1 and #2.
SLC-0604-50484 / HD0000000070766 -
Problem: I've just reviewed the NOIS MEM-0504-71296, and we are struggling
with the same issues of supplementary reports that they are. (Post install
63 63.817 .03 RELEASE SUPP REPORT MODIFIED New Field
of patch LR*5.2*259). We currently do not have the electronic signature
turned on. The concern is, that once a report is unreleased, the
previously released portion of the report is not viewable on CPRS, and the
way we operate here is that the secretaries transcribe the report, and the
pathologist signs them sometime later. We have only had the patch
installed for a couple of days, and the path lab has already received calls
that reports have "disappeared" on CPRS ... are there any suggestions for a
process change that could help with this?
Resolution: The resolution of this issue is contained in the section
63 63.907 .03 RELEASE SUPP REPORT MODIFIED New Field
above that describes the resolution to patient safety issues #1 and #2.
SLC-0604-50594 / HD0000000070769 -
Problem: Post installation of LA*5.2*259 we have encountered the usual
problems with any software install that changes the daily routine of
workflow, but there is a problem that we feel does affect patient care .
We now have to "unrelease" a report prior to adding a supplementary report,
the secretaries then transcribe the supplemental report, then the
pathologists must review/correct and sign it prior to the secretaries
re-releasing the report. This leaves a window of several hours during
which the original report is not viewable on the computer, we have already
received calls about "disappearing" path reports. Our pathologists feel
that a supplemental report should truly be regarded as an addendum to the
original report, and should not make the original report unviewable while
the supplemental report is being processed.
Resolution: The resolution of this issue is contained in the section
above that describes the resolution to patient safety issues #1 and #2.
SLC-0604-51082 / H00000000070778 -
All of the above changes have been reviewed by the VISTA Blood Bank
Problem: We have found a problem with the electronic signature patch. Our
transcriptionist mistakenly selected the field to add a date to the
supplementary report field (thru edit/modify), but didn't add text to the
free text field. He was unable to sign a supplementary report (the
computer says it doesn't exist), but when he tries to release the original
report, it says that the supplementary needs to be released first. The lab
figured out a way to release this, but it is an issue.
Resolution: The resolution of this issue is contained in the section
above that describes the resolution to patient safety issues #1 and #2.

Anatomic Pathology Electronic Signature Patch LR*5.2*259.
The patient safety issues are described as follows:

Autopsy Protocol released report are given access to the Modify released report
SPECIAL NOTE:
[LRAPMRL] option in order to allow the user to add supplementary reports.
2. The original Anatomic Pathology SF515 or Autopsy Protocol report is not
viewable in the Computer Patient Records System (CPRS) during the time a
supplementary report is underway. Personnel are unable to view the report
during this time.
The VistA Laboratory Anatomic Pathology Electronic Signature Patch
LR*5.2*259 changed the location and the method by which supplementary
reports are added. The Modify released report [LRAPMRL] option is used to add

supplementary reports to the original report. Laboratory personnel allowed to
add supplementary reports to Anatomic Pathology released reports must have
access to the Modify released report [LRAPMRL] option. This access opened up
the potential for errors in which the report could be accidentally modified
when a supplementary report was added.
Patch LR*5.2*317 resolves this problem by removing the supplementary report
addition functionality from the Modify released reports [LRAPMRL] option and
placing the functionality back to the Supplementary Report, Anat Path
[LRAPDSR] option for Cytology, Electron Microscopy, and Surgical Pathology
The Pre-Installation instructions within the Installation Section below,
released reports and the Autopsy supplementary report [LRAPAUSR] option for
Autopsy released reports.
Another concern had to do with the addition of a supplementary report to a
released Anatomic Pathology report, which unreleased the original report and
made it unavailable for viewing in Computerized Patient Record System (CPRS).
The time span in which the original report remained unavailable for viewing by
the Providers could be crucial. It was considered a major patient safety issue
if a doctor, who was with a patient, was not able to view the report at that
time.
MUST be followed and completed before installation can begin.
Patch LR*5.2*317 resolves this problem by leaving the original report in
released status during the time a supplementary report is being added. The
original report remains available for viewing in CPRS during this time.

REMEDY OVERVIEW:
================
1.1. HD0000000071160:
---------------------
A user reported encountering "FileMan DBS call failed during accessioning
in routine LRWLST1" MailMan bulletins during accessioning. The generation
of this bulletin occurs when Laboratory was making a duplicate FileMan DBS
call during accessioning that involved an accession area being 'in common'
with another accession area. This duplicate call would occur when the
accession area has a lower internal entry number in ACCESSION file (#68)
than the accession area it is 'in common' with.
STANDARD DATA DICTIONARY #68.02 -- ACCESSION NUMBER SUB-FILE
1.2. HD0000000071160:
----------------------
During internal software review, the following issues were identified:
a. It was determined that the "AD" CROSS-REFERENCE on ACCESSION field
(#15) in ACCESSION NUMBER sub-file (#68.02) of ACCESSION file (#68)
was not setting the reference to the 'in common' accession correctly
on the accession. The patch will remove this cross-reference from
the data dictionary. See 2b. for storing 'in common' accession
reference.
STORED IN ^LRO(68,D0,1,D1,1,
b. Field IN COMMON ACCESSION (#15.1) in ACCESSION NUMBER sub-file
(#68.02) of ACCESSION file (#68) is added to the data dictionary
to store the reference to the 'in common' accession when this
relationship exists. Routine LRWLST11 will update this field when
appropriate.

2. HD0000000093193:
-------------------
A user reported an <UNDEFINED>WN1A^LRWLST1 error when accessioning. This
would occur when attempting to force an accession number for an accession
area that did not have any accessions for the current accession day.
Routine LRWLST1 will now handle displaying a default accession number 1
when there are no existing accessions for the current accession day.
3. HD0000000102626:
-------------------
A user reported a <SUBSCRIPT>GRID+21^LR7OGMG error when using the CPRS Lab
Reports tab to display recent laboratory results. This would occur when
there are three or more tests on an accession, at least two of the tests
were performed at different laboratories and a third test had a 'pending'
result and therefore no performing laboratory designated. The software
PRINTABLE ACCESSION
was attempting to determine the performing laboratory for the pending
test. Routine LR7OGMG will now ignore tests that do not have a performing
laboratory when constructing the list of performing laboratories
associated with an accession's test results.

------------------
This patch contains two enhancements. (1) Provide a PIMS certified Default
Patch Description:
This patch provides a new field, PCE DEFAULT PROVIDER, in the LABORATORY
SITE (#69) file to support the Laboratory PCE API workload data capture.
The default provider is defined locally based on PCE/PIMS workload
provider screening criteria. It is the responsibility of the LIM to
coordinate with the PCE/PIMS Coordinator to ensure that this field is
properly defined and maintained.
Failure to enter a default provider will cause PCE and Laboratory
Provider to be used for laboratory Patient Care Database workload
phlebotomy workload data NOT TO BE PROCESSED. NONE of the workload data is
lost. No default provider causes the workload data processing software to
stop and wait until the field is properly defined.
The software logic will check the ordering provider for no termination
date and person class for the encounter date. If the ordering provider
fails this check the default provider will be used instead.
A cleanup utility will be provided to deal with previous provider
rejection errors by reprocessing encounters using the default provider
collected via PCE API. (2) Correct excessive counting of laboratory
instead of the ordering provider of record.
---------------------
Second Enhancement:
Laboratory phlebotomy counts were being credited for non patient
specimens. Also other factors were inflating phlebotomy workload. A code
change now screens all workload to ensure that only patients from the
Patient (#2) file are processed. Software logic has been change to capture
1 phlebotomy count for each LAB ORDER with a collection type of Send
Patient (SP), Immediate Collect (I) or Lab Collect (LC).
phlebotomy workload.
The inflated phlebotomy counts coincide with the installation of patch
LR*5.2*138. It is recommended that the manual counts be used for the date
range between this patch and LR*5.2*138 instead of the LMIP generated
totals. After this patch is installed the manual totals should match
auto-captured phlebotomy totals +/- 5%.

This patch provides action alerts for Anatomic Pathology reports including
Electron Microscopy (EM), Surgical Pathology (SP), Cytology (CY), and
Autopsy (AU) reports. These action alerts are sent automatically to the
ordering provider and the primary care physician (PCP) at the time the
report is released. If requested, alerts may be sent to additional
person(s). These additional alerts are also action alerts. This
functionality is now the same whether electronic signature (ES) is
turned ON or OFF. Before this patch, additional alerts could not be
requested with electronic signature (ES) turned OFF.
The Supplementary report release, anat path [LRAPRS] option now sends
action alerts automatically to the ordering provider and the PCP at the

Pathology (AP). The individual reports are displayed as one continuous
scrolling display. A single row of equal (=) signs is used to separate
one report from the next. Additionally, the text- "Next SURGICAL
PATHOLOGY Specimen..." is also used to separate reports. However, with
multiple reports and the use of single dashed lines in each report, it
can be difficult to distinguish the separation between AP reports.
Resolution:
A new API has been created (EN^LR7OSAP4) for retrieving a detailed report
for an individual Anatomic Pathology Specimen. This resolves the
PSI by allowing a package interface, like CPRS, to present each specimen
to the user and then get the report on the specimen.

RISK ANALYSIS: The changes made by patch LR*5.2*335 affect Blood Bank
software functionality, however the RISK is considered to be low.
Inappropriate use of the "Disable VistA Blood Bank components"
[VBEC BB COMPONENTS DISABLE] option can disable the VistA 5.2
Blood Bank system. This risk is minimal since the "Enable VistA
Blood Bank components" [VBEC BB COMPONENTS ENABLE] option can be
used to restore full operations.
EFFECT ON BLOOD BANK FUNCTIONAL REQUIREMENTS: Patch LR*5.2*335 does not
Please read and follow the instructions in the "Blood Bank
alter or modify any software design safeguards or safety critical
elements functions.
POTENTIAL IMPACT ON SITES: This patch contains changes to 0 routines and
4 files identified in Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Directive
2004-058, group B listing. The changes have no effect on medical device
control functions.
This is the final step prior to the transfer of Blood Bank operations
to the VBECS system. All future impact will be dealt with through VBECS
development
Pre-Implementation Data Validation, Mapping, and Conversion Installation
VALIDATION REQUIREMENTS BY OPTION:
No VistA Blood Bank 5.2 options are released with this patch.
However, the options listed above should be tested to ensure that
they have been disabled after the completion of the data conversion.

DESCRIPTION:
VISTA Laboratory Package patch LR*5.2*309 contains changes to
============
This patch removes one field, the DESCRIPTION field (#20), in the
LAB DATA file (#63) CYTOPATHOLOGY sub-file (#63.09), and a reference to
this field in routine ^LRAUAW.
Although it is highly unlikely that data exists in the DESCRIPTION
field (#20), the patch also checks for data that may have been entered in
the field. Any data that is found is moved to the ^XTMP("LR309")
global and stored for 180 days before it is purged. If data is found,
the installation routine also generates and sends a mail message to the
software controlled by VHA DIRECTIVE 2004-058, titled VISTA
holders of security keys LRLIASON and LRAPSUPER to be used as a source
document to determine how the data should be handled if at all.
The message contains the LR*5.2*309 Data Report which lists the data
found, the accession number, the patient's name, social security number
and gender.
DATA DICTIONARY CHANGES:
========================
The following is a list of the Data Dictionary entry in LAB DATA file

MODIFICATION OF THE LRAUAW ROUTINE:
===================================
Patch LR*5.2*309 also makes changes to the LRAUAW routine to remove a
reference to the DESCRIPTION field (#20) of the CYTOPATHOLOGY sub-file
(#63.09) in the LAB DATA file (#63). The change will be transparent to

This patch is a VM general purpose lab patch that addresses 2 issues.
1. When printing an autopsy report through option "Entries by dates,
patient and accession number", an <UNDEFINED> error occurs.
2. There are 3 indicators for DRAW TIMES related to antibiotics: PEAK,
TROUGH, and RANDOM. The designator "RANDOM" does not appear on
a report under the LABS tab in CPRS GUI, as do the designators
"PEAK" and "TROUGH".

Description:
============
1). This patch corrects the following problem which can occur when an
Anatomic Pathology (AP) report is released:
PROBLEM (HVH-0804-11491/HD0000000070948): When an AP report is released
containing 3 sequential characters defined in the BLANK CHARACTER STRING
field (#1.06), of the TIU PARAMETERS file (#8925.99), the Text
LRBLPC1
Integration Utility (TIU) electronic signature fails without giving
notification to the user. The AP report is successfully created and
stored in TIU, but is marked in TIU as an unsigned document, which in
turn, may generate an alert in Computerized Patient Record System (CPRS).
RESOLUTION: This patch adds a new parameter to the code that
calls the TIU API, NEW^TIUPNAPI. This TIU API is called at the time the
AP report is released; it creates and stores the AP report in the TIU
DOCUMENT file (#8925).

6. Provide barcode technology for patient identification and
positive specimen identification.
7. Capture accurate collection and lab receipt times that allows the
laboratory users to track outpatient lab samples from collection to
verification.
8. Assist in accomplishing the VA strategic plan, which specifies
that 90% of laboratory specimens will be collected utilizing barcode
technology.

The Howdy bar code technology allows the lab personnel to use scanners to
verify a veteran's identity and to track drawn sample(s) until the
results are entered into the VistA Laboratory system.
Howdy addresses privacy issues. The scanning of the VIC feature eliminates
a hand-written log book for sign in, where the patient's name and SSN can
be viewed.

- DESCRIPTION:
LR*5.2*143 Patch Description:
File Installed:
guidelines:
Each sendout test should be coded with an appropriate specific WKLD Code
prefix. If there is not an appropriate specific WKLD Code available,
submit a request for WKLD Code addition(s) to the P&LMS Informatics Manage
at the Dallas CIOFO. Forms are available in Patch LR*5.2*138 for making
these requests.
Each sendout test should have a .8XXX suffix. All nationally recognized
sendout laboratories have a suffix code numbers in the range of
LAB DSS LAR EXTRACT ^LAR(64.036)
.8000-.8999. Each sendout test should be assigned an .8XXX suffix
indicating the laboratory that the specimen was sent for analysis. If the
same sendout test is sent to two or more laboratories, one method, is to
have a separate test for each sendout laboratory. Separate test for each
sendout laboratory will allow different normal ranges and specimen
requirements and test cost. At the very least the sendout tests should be
coded to include the ordered test and the sendout laboratory whenever
possible. In certain situations, sendout testing represents a significant
percentage of total patient care cost. This cost requires better tracking
to determine patient's overall treatment cost.
The Lab DSS API (routine LRCAPDSS) will be enhanced by patch LR*5.2*143 to
extract all sendout tests based on the .8XXX suffix. It is not necessary
to set the DSS Feeder Key to 'YES'.
Example
CEA done at VA Milwaukee
86617.8694 CEA~VA MILWAUKEE
CEA done at Smith Kline Beecham
86617.8001 CEA~SMITH KLINE BEECHAM
==================
With the new Lab DSS API enhancement, WKLD Codes conforming to any of the
following patterns will be extracted and passed to the DSS Workload API.
WKLD CODE marked as Billable Procedure [LMIP Unit] (Austin Database)
WKLD CODE with the suffix of .9999 (DSS ACC)
WKLD CODE with the suffix of .8XXX (Sendout laboratory destination )
WKLD CODE with the DSS Feeder Key (#14) field in the WKLD CODE file (#64)
marked YES
Note:
National Laboratory Tests (NLT)and WKLD Codes can be considered to be the
same codes. NLT is the name of the VistA Package responsible for
distributing and updating WKLD Code files.
Installation Instructions:
NOTE: This patch is invoked by patch ECX*2*18 and does not function

Functionality:
The Laboratory Clinical Extraction API replaces the earlier clinical data
ROUTINE SUMMARY:
extraction software that utilized the LABORATORY SITE file (#69) and the
ACCESSION file (#68). In an earlier guideline, DSS requested that the LIM
adjust the purge date for these two files to retain 300 days of data. This
request could not be done by numerous sites because of the lack of disk
storage capacity. Patch LR*5.2*143 will relieve the sites from retaining
300 days of ORDERS and ACCESSION, and the normal PURGE OLD ORDERS AND
ACCESSION option date range can be restored.
Implementation:
The DSS LAR Data (Patch LR*5.2*143 and the companion DSS patch ECX*2*18)
extract utilizes the LAB DATA file (#63) and does not require the LAB
ORDERS file (#69) or the ACCESSION file (#68). Implementation of the DSS
LAR API DOES require that the LIM link the 12 DSS LAR tests in the DSS LAB
TEST file (#727.2) to all local corresponding tests in the LABORATORY
TESTS file (#60). For DSS purposes, these corresponding laboratory tests
must be linked to the WKLD CODE file and must be individually orderable
(atomic) tests. The link between LABORATORY TESTS file and the WKLD CODE
file is accomplished by assigning a WKLD CODE. The NATIONAL LABORATORY
TEST field (#64) of the LABORATORY TESTS file (#60) provides this linkage.
Routine Name Before Patch After Patch Patch List
The NATIONAL LABORATORY TEST field is not used by LMIP data capture
software and will not effect LMIP counts. Patch LR*5.2*127 provided a
menu, "National Laboratory Test" [LR70 60-64], to link the LABORATORY
TESTS file to the WKLD CODE file.
NOTE: When linking the DSS LAR tests to local laboratory tests, only
atomic Laboratory Tests are selectable. Panel tests are NOT permitted to
be linked to any DSS survey test.
The DSS LAR extract also requires the LIM to identify all specimens that
LRCAPDAR NA 5854094 143
are derived from blood or urine, i.e., plasma, serum, clean catch. The LAB
DSS LAR API will use these specimens to screen patient's results in the
LAB DATA file and extract information for the 12 DSS tests.
The local DSS Coordinator will seek the LIM's assistance to identify tests
and specimens. This should require less than 30 minutes to complete. The
LIM is not required to actually initiate the data extraction. This will be
done by the local DSS Coordinator.
The LIM SHOULD coordinate the purging/archiving of the LAB DATA and the
LRCAPDSS 5467821 5610986 127,143
WKLD DATA files with the DSS Coordinator.
The data for the DSS LAR extract will be stored during processing in a new
file LAB DSS LAR (#64.036) and the data is stored in the global
^LAR(64.036). This global will be purged by the calling DSS option when
the data has been transferred to the DSS laboratory clinical database.
Normally this file will be empty. The design and functionality are the
same used by the WKLD LOG file (#64.03) for the DSS LAB extract. Neither
the LIM nor the Laboratory Package is responsible for purging data from
the WKLD LOG file (#64.03) or the LAB DSS LAR file (#64.036).

Remedy Overview:
================
1. INC000000500271 - MRSA Testing on Death
Problem:
patients but they are allowed to proceed through the accessioning process
--------
Laboratory staff indicates that they are not able to perform MRSA testing
on patients who are deceased. The application will not allow them to
accession specimens or enter results for the MRSA test on deceased
patients. Further, the user is allowed to progress through the
accessioning session without an early warning that an order has been
canceled.
Resolution:
-----------
without an early warning that the test has been cancelled.
To avoid having MRSA tests cancelled at either patient death or
discharge, the desired test should be added as an Exempt Orderable Item
for the Death and/or Discharge event in the Delayed Orders/Auto-DC Set-up
function.
Additionally, the routine LROE is modified to provide clear, early
feedback to the user that a test has been cancelled and will not be
accessioned.
2. INC000000069164 - LRGEN Missing Results
2. LRGEN skips rows of results when the SITE/SPECIMEN prompt is
Problem:
--------
The defect occurs when using the LRGEN option (General report for
selected tests) and when there are more than six (6) analytes on the
selected tests. When the SITE/SPECIMEN prompt is answered with the
default (ANY), the application only displays the first set of headings
and results - that is: it only properly displays the first six results
and skips the remaining results. This typically occurs on the results
for the last date of service. Though no results are displayed,
answered with the default (ANY) and it frequently displays/prints
unnecessary headers are displayed or printed.
Resolution:
-----------
Multiple modifications and the addition of a function to routine LRGEN1,
correct the missing results and unnecessary header issues.
3. INC000000937699 - Group Verify Ignoring NP
Problem:
unnecessary headers.
--------
When Group Verify (GA) is used to verify results for a Work Load Area
that contains accessions that have tests that have been marked as Not
Performed on a prior date, the option can erroneously verify results that
may have been entered for the accession.
Resolution:
-----------
A modification to routine LRGV2 prevents the verification of any results
that may be associated with Not Performed test(s).

Each VAMC site will determine which instruments will use this
functionality as it can set up on an instrument by instrument basis.
Essentially VistA Lab instruments are set up as either being available
for auto verification or not available for auto verification. If an
Subject: LABORATORY AUTO VERICATION & AUTO RELEASE
instrument is set up for auto verification, then a lab result passing the
rule set will be filed by the middleware in VistA lab files and available
in CPRS and a lab result that cannot pass the rule set will be held in
the middleware system for review by a lab technologist.
In support of this auto verification and auto release functionality, this
patch will add two new application proxy users. LRLAB AUTO RELEASE is
used to indicate that the results in VistA Lab were released by an
automated Lab process without human interventions. LRLAB, AUTO VERIFY is
used to indicate that the results were "approved" by an automated process
using a rules based system.

Patch Installation:
Pre/Post Installation Overview:
------------------------------------------
The environment check will ensure that the following ORDERABLE ITEMS and
TOPOGRAPHY entries are an exact name match before patch LR*5.2*469 will
be allowed to install. This matching is critical due to the dependency of
the configuration in LR AP DIALOG CONFIG file by ORDERABLE ITEM and
HIDE FROM DESCRIPTION field (#.02) of the SPECIMEN multiple (#3) of the
TOPOGRAPHY.
Orderable Item search Criteria:
First check is for an exact name match
If multiples found the check will fail
If one or more match the name but none have a display group of
anatomic pathology the check will fail
If there is one exact name match with a display group of
Anatomic Pathology the check will be successful

Pre-Installation Instructions:
-------------------------------------
This patch may be installed with users on the system although it is
recommended that it be installed during non-peak hours to minimize
potential disruption to users. This patch should take less than 5
minutes
to install
1. The Laboratory ADPAC will need to create thirteen new lab tests to
support the CPRS AP DIALOG functionality. These tests must be set up
Anatomic Pathology order dialog enhancements. It contains the new file LR
with a collection sample of AP SPECIMEN.
If the COLLECTION SAMPLE file does not have an AP SPECIMEN entry
refer to Section 2.2 of the following document:
LEDI IV Installation Guide (Lab_Ledi_IV_Install_Guide.pd)
2. Add thirteen new tests to the LABORATORY TEST file. Below are
examples of what the AP tests should look like in the LABORATORY TEST
File (#60) once the entries have been created.
AP DIALOG CONFIG (#69.73).
NOTE: Use the appropriate Institution(s) entries for your facility.
WARNING: Make sure there are no other entries in the LABORATORY TEST file
that have the same name or synonym even though the subscript is
different.
For example: If there is an existing Bone Marrow with Subscript of
'Cytology' then you may rename the test to 'Bone Marrow (Cytology)'.
Also if there is a synonym of 'Bone Marrow' then you may rename it to
'Bone Marrow (CY)'.
Set all tests up and TYPE NEITHER. When CPRS v32 is available you can
set the TYPE to BOTH.
Workload code configuration should be done in compliance with your
current Laboratory practices.
The PRINT NAME is not important and can be whatever you wish it to be.
1- The LR AP DIALOG CONFIG(#69.73) file is used to support the
The ACCESSION AREA should be whatever is in use at your facility as long
as it is appropriate for the subscript of the test.

will have assigned CPT codes. This will cause a 2 to 4 fold increase
in the workload Patient Care Encounter (PCE) Application Programmer
Interface (API) traffic.
The workload API is dependent on orderable tests being linked to a NLT
code. National Laboratory File menu [LR70 60-64] option has sub-menu
options to link the LABORATORY TEST file (#60) entries to NLT codes.
2. The routine LRCAPAMP that is used by the Recompile Phase 1 LMIP
data [LR WKLD LMIP 1 REPEAT] option was not resetting all file entries.
In certain situations, workload data could be lost.
NOTE: Remember to recompile each division individually before repeating
any additional data compiling.
3. The Workload code list [LRCAPD] option has been enhanced to
display CPT codes and additional fields to be used by Laboratory
Electronic Data Interchange (LEDI). NOTE: It is recommended that a
new list be generated with this option.
4. The Edit or Print WKLD CODES [LR WKLD CODE EDIT PRINT] option
This patch upgrades the National Laboratory Test (NLT) codes. The
now allows the user to edit all fields for any WKLD CODE in the file.
This option should be restricted to the Laboratory Information
Manager's (LIM's) menu.
5. The Add a new WKLD code to file [LRCAP CODE ADD] option now
prompts for test cost and price.
7. The PRICE field (#8) has been added to the WKLD CODE file (#64).
8. Any conversion errors are stored in the LAB NLT/CPD CODE (#64.81).
following enhancements are provided. The CPT/HCPCS CODES Version 6.0
If no errors are generated during the CPT code linkage, this file will
be empty after install is completed.
9. The PCE/VSIT ON field (#615) in LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9) will
be set to "PCE/VSIT ONLY" which transmits CPT codes only to the workload
API. No Clinic Stop Code data will be transmitted.

that the ordering location will be reflected correctly.
Problem:
--------
Error <SUBSCRIPT>AP+2^LRXREF is being triggered during AP Specimen
Log-in accessioning of orders created in CPRS. There was code in the
routine that was trying to continue the accessioning process even if the
test being accessioned did not have an accession area defined that
matched the division of the accessioning person. The default lookup was
expecting to find an SP for Surgical Pathology or a CY for Cytopathology
accession area abbreviations. If a site has changed these abbreviations
to something other than SP and CY the <SUBSCRIPT> error would be
triggered.
Resolution:
-----------
Routine modifications were made to remove the default accession area
logic and replace it with code that will exit the user with the following

Back-Out Procedure:
-------------------
The build does not make any changes that would affect the operational
state of the software and platform settings.
1. Back-Out Strategy
During installation, if the option to back up routines was run as
directed, 'Backup a Transport Global', then routines have the ability
69.732,.02 PAGENAME Modified
to be restored from the "backup" MailMan message that was generated.
However, the KIDS installation process does not perform a restore of
other VistA components, such as data dictionary, cross-reference, and
template changes, etc.
Prior to attempting a back-out of the software, please contact the VA
Help Desk at 1-855-673-4357 for support or assistance.

2. When USING AP Log-in, anat path [option LRAPLG], an <UNDEFINED> error
occurs in the NEXT subroutine of routine LRAPKOE when logging in a
case for a deceased veteran ordered in CPRS.
3. In AP Log-in, anat path [option LRAPLG], the PATHOLOGIST prompt is a
required entry. The pathologist who will read the case is usually
not known at the time the case is logged into the laboratory. The
process should be modified to make entry of PATHOLOGIST optional.
4. The routine (LRAPKOE) that processes Anatomic Pathology orders entered
in CPRS needs to be modified to call VistA Imaging to add the case to
the MAG PATH CASELIST file (#2005.42) to support Telepathology and to
generate the HL7 message that is sent to digital pathology systems.
1. Emerging Pathogen Initiative (EPI) data is collected in VistA and
forwarded to the Austin Information Technology Center (AITC) for
national roll-up monthly. Part of the collected data has to do with
Clinical Reminders related to Hepatitis C. The Clinical Reminder data
is formatted into the DSP segment of a HL7 record for delivery to the
AITC. The data is currently being formatted improperly.

and does not require the LAB ORDER ENTRY file (#69) or the ACCESSION

Interface (API) DOES require that the Laboratory Information Manager
(LIM) link the 12 DSS LAR tests in the DSS LAB TESTS file (#727.2) to
all local corresponding tests in the LABORATORY TEST file (#60).
Linking of DSS clinical tests has NO EFFECT ON WORKLOAD DATA CAPTURE.
You should link the atomic test in LABORATORY TEST (#60) file that is
used to report the result.
For DSS purposes, these corresponding laboratory tests must be linked
to the WKLD CODE file (#64) and must be individually orderable (atomic)
tests. The link between LABORATORY TEST file (#60) and the WKLD CODE
file (#64) is accomplished by assigning a WKLD CODE. The NATIONAL
NATIONAL VA LAB CODE field (#64) of the LABORATORY TEST file (#60)
provides this linkage.
The NATIONAL VA LAB CODE field (#64) is not used by LMIP data capture

be linked to any DSS survey test.

- DESCRIPTION:
Defect Tracking System Ticket(s) & Overview:
SCAN TIME, TIME SPECIMEN COLLECTED and TIME SCANED INTO LAB from
approximately 10 years ago. Entries in the HOWDY SPECIMEN TIMES BY UID
file #69.87 are never deleted. After 10 years, when lab accessions (UIDs)
are no longer unique, data for current UIDs can no longer be added to
file #69.87, because the software checks for the presence of the UID and
does not allow duplicates.
The site that reported the issue is using the option LRHY TRACK
COLLECTION to produce a report of patient specimens collected via Howdy.
That report retrieves data from the HOWDY SPECIMEN TIMES BY UID file
===========================================
(#69.87). The site gave several examples of accessions (UIDs) that are
showing data from 2011. Lab accession numbers (UIDs) are only unique for
10 years. Many of the entries in this site's file #69.87 are > 9 years
old, and thus have UIDs that are no longer unique and are the source of
this data error on the report.
The option that creates the entries in file #69.87 is LRHY PHLEBOTOMY
LOG. The routine for that option checks to see if the UID entered in the
option is already in file #69.87. If it is, the option does not add the
UID to the file again. Because the only UID from 10 years ago is in the
file, the current UID cannot be added, and this is the real source of the
problem.
There should really be a utility added, perhaps called from LRNIGHT, that
checks file #69.87 for entries >9 years old and deletes those entries
from the file. Note that this will eventually affect all VA sites that
use Howdy, and specifically those that use the LRHY PHLEBOTOMY LOG option.
Resolution:
1. INC20231002 - CTX Incorrect Information in VistA Track Collection
----------
Logic is added to the NIGHTLY LAB CLEANUP process. The routine LRNIGHT
will run LRHOWDY^LRWU9A in the background. LRHOWDY^LRWU9A will delete
records that are more than 9 years old from file #69.87.
Technical Resolution:
---------------------
Within the SUBTASKS section of routine LRNIGHT, code is added to job off
LRHOWDY^LRWU9A to background processing.
Entry point LRHOWDY is added to routine LRWU9A.
LRHOWDY loops through the SCAN index of file #69.87 and deletes records
that are greater than 9 years old, time is not considered so a record
that was scanned anytime today exactly 9 years ago is not deleted, the
record must have been scanned over 9 years ago to be purged.

The Y2K guidelines document states that applications are required to
expand the external date displays on reports or forms which can be
considered legally binding documents between the VA and the veteran, an
agent of the veteran, or a service- or product- provider to the VA.

generated by the following options were to be modified to display the
date using a 4 digit year format rather than the traditional dd/mm/yr
format currently used:
Print single BB patient report [LRBLP PRINT SINGLE]
Print all BB patient reports on print queue [LRBLP PRINT ALL ON QUEUE]
Blood bank consultation reports [LRBLCN] **> Locked with LRBLSUPER
Print units with final disposition [LRBLRUF] **> Locked with LRBLSUPER
RISK ANALYSIS: Since the coding changes only affect the format of the
year printed on the report and have no functionality changes, the risk

This patch is the regular release of additional National Laboratory Test
Codes (WKLD CODES). It contains the requested additional prefix and
suffix codes required to identify ordered test and test results.
LR*5.2*210 Patch Description:
This patch contains updates of WKLD CODES stored in WKLD CODE file (#64).
These codes are also known as National Laboratory Test codes. The added
codes represent those codes requested, by various sources, to identify
Patch LR*5.2*210 VISTA BLOOD BANK SOFTWARE V5.2 DEVICE PRODUCT LABELING
ordered tests and results. If you wish to print the new additional WKLD
CODES, use FileMan Print sorted by numbers. Begin with number 2990, end
with 99999. Select caption print for the print fields.
This patch contains updates of suffix codes stored in WKLD SUFFIX CODES
file (#64.2). These codes were requested, by various sources, to identify
methods used to determine results of ordered tests.
This patch contains updates of manufacturers stored in WKLD INSTRUMENT
MANUFACTURER file (#64.3). This file is a reference file used to group
STATEMENT
WKLD CODE SUFFIX codes by manufacturer.
In addition to new NLT Codes the options Order/test status [LROS] and
Review by order number [LRCENLKUP] have been enhanced to display the
Visit number returned by the PCE interface for Laboratory CPT code
capture. The number displayed corresponds to the internal entry number
for the VISIT (#9000010) file. This number maybe useful when verifying
Laboratory CPT workload capture. The VISIT file pointer is free text and
each individual pointer number is separated by a semi-colon. CPT workload
is only captured for patients seen on outpatient status. CPT codes are
captured for ordered tests only. There is no relationship between
accessioned/verified and CPT workload capture. CPT workload capture is
based on entries in the LAB ORDER ENTRY (#69) file ONLY.
Ordered tests must be linked via NATIONAL VA LAB CODE field (#64) of the
LABORATORY TEST file (#60). All CPT codes associated with the linked NLT
Code will be passed to the PCE interface.
The new print option NLT Monthly Workload Detail [LR CAP ELROY] is also
provided. This FileMan print option allows the user to select
April 10, 1998
institution/division, date range and NLT codes. The report will print
sub-total by NLT code with grand total for the report period. This report
maybe useful when reviewing data stored in LAB MONTHLY WORKLOADS file
(#67.9) for workload trends by specific NLT Codes.
Note: When selecting Institution use literal name (i.e. Long Beach), not
station number (.i.e. 600).
NOTE: Data is stored in the LAB MONTHLY WORKLOADS file by month only.
There aren't any daily totals stored in this file.
The Post install procedure will make some corrections to your database if
appropriate. This is a list of possible corrections required by your
systems. If corrections are made, they will be displayed during the
install. They are also stored in the Install file for review.

11.This patch provides utilities for linking ORDERABLE tests in
LABORATORY TEST (#60) file to WKLD CODE (#64) file. This linkage differs
from LMIP file setup. CPT Procedure coding is a rather non specific
identification of ORDERED tests. CPT codes identifies procedures ordered
by the provider. LMIP coding identifies procedures and method of analysis
used to collect management data. These coding system are used for two
different purposes and should not be confused.

This is the PCE/API patch which will be replacing the current method of
recording clinic stop codes with CPT codes. This patch creates several new
fields and one new file LAB NLT/CPT CODES (#64.81).
The primary purpose of this patch (LR*5.2*127) is to convert from
1. A new field in LABORATORY TEST file(#60) named NATIONAL VA LAB
CODE (#64). This new field links orderable tests in file #60 with generic
WKLD CODES (a.k.a. NLT) (#64). Generic codes are those NLT codes ending in
four (4) zeros. Utilities (options) are provided for linking LABORATORY
TEST (#60) file to WKLD CODE (#64) file. The new PCE/API uses this linkage
to determine what CPT codes should be passed to the PCE/API. Orderable
tests in LABORATORY TEST file should have a linkage to WKLD CODE.
2. Modified field PCE/VSIT ON (#615) in file LABORATORY SITE
(#69.9) will control which reporting method should used. Field
functionality change: The TRANSMIT CLINIC STOP CODES (#614) field in the
reporting Laboratory clinic stop codes, to reporting CPT codes for ordered
LABORATORY SITE (#69.9) file is no longer used to control reporting of
clinic stop codes. The PCE package has replaced the clinic stop codes with
CPT codes for each test collected. You should now use PCE/VSIT ON (#615)
in LABORATORY SITE (#69.9) file to control both clinic stop code and CPT
code transmission. Patch LR*5.2*127 automatically sets the PCE/VSIT ON
field to report both clinic stop and CPT codes. It is expected that
beginning with Oct. 1, 1996 VA DHCP will begin reporting workload using
CPT codes. Logic has been built into the software to determine when to
start reporting CPT codes to the PCE package. The TRANSMIT CLINIC STOP
CODES (#614) field will be retired in a future version.
tests done on patients. The Laboratory Package will capture and send CPT
3. A new field PCE COUNTED (#11) has been added to file LAB ORDER
ENTRY (#69). This field prevents an order from being counted more than
once.
4. The field CPT CODE (#18) has been modified in WKLD CODE
file(#64). This field's name has been changed to CODE and is a multiple.
The CODE entries can be of different types. Each code has optional fields
of RELEASE DATE (#2) and INACTIVE DATE (#3). These fields can be used to
screen codes based on dates entered. There is another field REPLACEMENT
CODE (#4) which is used for local record keeping. The software logic does
not use the REPLACEMENT CODE field.
codes via PCE/API. There is an install deadline involved (10/1/96) in
5. This patch also adds CPT codes to WKLD CODE FILE (#64) during
the post install phase.
6. Additional Fields have added to WKLD LOG FILE (#64.03). These
fields are not directly related to PCE/API. These fields are used to
support Laboratory Extract for DSS. Additional fields have been added to
WKLD LOG FILE (#64.03) to support laboratory extract of LMIP codes for
DSS. These files are not used by the Laboratory PCE/API. WKLD LOG FILE is
being upgraded to support DSS API and is used exclusively by DSS and there
is no direct user interaction. WKLD LOG FILE is a temporary storage file
for LMIP codes for DSS extracts. A new routine ,'LRCAPDSS' provides DSS
order to support PCE functionality requirements.
with a API to extract laboratory workload data in batch mode. If the site
is currently using WKLD LOG FILE for local purposes, this practice should
be terminated. WKLD LOG FILE IS USED EXCLUSIVELY TO SUPPORT DSS DATA
EXTRACTION.
7. This patch also contains a new file LAB NLT/CPT CODES (#64.81).
This file is only used to transport data to upgrade existing WKLD CODES
(NLT) test codes already released to the field. This file is used by the
Post Install routine to add CPT codes to WKLD CODE (#64) file. Entries are
automatically purged from 64.81 file if the linking process was
successful. If there is an error during the linking process, a message is
stored in #64.81 and the entry is not purge. A FileMan print of #64.81
file will display those codes which were not linked. If there are no
errors, file #64.81 will be empty after the post install routine runs to
completion.
Any new WKLD CODES released will already have assigned CPT Procedure
and are distributed via national releases of NLT package. CPT coding of
WKLD CODES is done by Health Administration Head Quarters and should not
be changed locally.
8 Option Edit or Print WKLD CODES [LR WKLD CODE EDIT PRINT] has been
enhanced to allow printing of WKLD CODES which have CPT code linkages.
Creating links between file LABORATORY TEST (#60) and WKLD CODE (#64)
Modifications to routine LRCAPFDS provided this new functionality.
9. Routine LRCAPV1A has been modified to allow the user to enter a
synonym for newly created WKLD CODES using the option; 'Add a new WKLD
code to file [LRCAP CODE ADD].
10. This patch contains a new routine LRCAPPH1 and the modified
routine LRCAPPH. These routines gather the needed data and creates the
PCE/API CPT linkage. 'LRCAPPH' has been change to look at the modified
field PCE/VSIT ON (#615) in file LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9) to determine
which reporting method should used. The user can inactivate reporting,
report only CPT codes or report both CPT and Clinic Stop Codes. There is

formats used on the Intermec printers, did not use all of the space.
This resulted in a shortened test list. The label software has been
adjusted to use the full amount of space available for the test list.
This varies with the different label sizes and formats.
The list of tests will be formatted such that a ";" separates each
test abbreviation. If all of the accession tests can not print on the
label due to lack of space then the list will be truncated. Truncation
will be indicated by the characters "..." at the end of the label test
list.

The following changes have been made:
2. Support exists for the following bar code symbologies:
a. W * was changed to W $C() in the label routines.
NOIS FNC-0697-31993
b. Routine LRLABLD was changed to use an approved DBIA (#2469) when
determining a user's default lab label printer. If a printer is
associated with the user's home device by entering a printer in
the LAB LABEL PRINTER field (#101) in the DEVICE (#3.5) file, then
this printer becomes the default label printer instead of LABLABEL.
It had been using a direct global read of global %ZIS.
Code 39
c. Routine LRPHLIST was changed to use the supported DBIA #10091 call.
If the user has no institution defined in the NEW PERSON (#200) file,
this call is used to determine the user's default institution,
It had been using a direct global read of global XMB.
21. The Print future collection labels option [LRUFCL] was not determining
the collection sample correctly. The collection sample is now derived
from the COLLECTION SAMPLE field (#3) in the SPECIMEN # multiple
field (#1) of the LAB ORDER ENTRY file (#69).
Code 39 with check digit
22. Lab routine selection:
a. The label routine selection is backward compatible with previous
logic. The software determines a label routine by the value of the
LABEL TYPE field (#302) in the LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9).
b. If a site defines label devices in the LABEL DEVICE multiple field
(#360) of the LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9), the label routine will
be determined as follows:
Code 128 bar code
If an accession area is not defined (test/future order labels) then
the accession area designated by DEFAULT ACCESSION AREA field (#.06)
within LABEL DEVICE multiple field (#360) of the LABORATORY SITE
file (#69.9) for following selection logic is used.
If an alternate label routine for the accession area is designated
then the label routine designated by fields ALTERNATE LABEL
ENTRY (#5.2) and ALTERNATE LABEL ROUTINE (#5.3) of the
ACCESSION file (#68) is used.
Otherwise if site has designated an alternate label routine for the
device then the label routine designated by fields ALTERNATE LABEL
ENTRY (#.04) and ALTERNATE LABEL ROUTINE (#.05) within LABEL DEVICE
multiple field (#360) of the LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9) is used.
Otherwise if the printer is designated as an Intermec 4100 by the
PRINTER TYPE field (#.02) of the LABEL DEVICE multiple field (#360)
of the LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9), the label routine is determined
by the LABEL STOCK field (#.03) of the LABEL DEVICE multiple field
The bar code symbology used can be designated on an accession area
(#360) of LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9) as follows:
1 15/16X3 --> routine LRLABELC
2 1X2 --> routine LRLABELA
3 2.5X4 10 PART --> routine LRLABELB

a specific symbology. See item #23 below for the effect of this field
F18 - Presently not used - Reserved for LEDI shipping labels
F19 - Presently not used - Reserved for LEDI shipping labels
Note: Formats F4, F8, and F12 print the bar code with a check digit.
24. Intermec format selection:
Note: This is based on the printer being designated as Intermec printer,
that is when the PRINTER TYPE field (#.02) in the LABEL DEVICE
multiple field (#360) of the LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9)
equals 1 and the value of the BAR CODE PRINT field (#5) in the
when using the Intermec label printers.
ACCESSION file (#68) is as listed in the below table:
Intermec 4100
1x2 label 15/16X3 10 part label
0 F3 F7 F12
1 F4 F8 F12
BAR CODE 2 F5 F9 F13

4 F5 F9 F13
BAR CODE PRINT set of code: 0 - NONE
1 - YES (Code 39 with check digit)
2 - Code39
3 - Code39 with check digit
4 - Code128
NOTE: The site will need to program the Intermec 4100 printer for those
formats which will be used based on label stock and bar code
symbology selected.
3. Support exists for bar coding the short/long identifier on labels.
Example: Site is using 1x2 labels and has specified BAR CODE
PRINT of 0,1, or 4 for various accession areas.
The Intermec 4100 printer would need to be
downloaded with formats F3, F4, and F5.

2. It has been found that under the following conditions the code to
create an accession's UID was being called twice. This resulted in
the UID for the accession being changed to a UID that began with
"00" even if the original UID was unique. This would occur when a
site has accession areas in parallel and the parallel accession
area has a lower internal entry number in the ACCESSION file (#68).
Example: Accession area "B" is in parallel with accession area "A".
Accession area "B" has a lower internal entry number in file
ACCESSION (#68). When building acccessions from an order
the accessions are created based on the internal entry
number in the ACCESSION file (#68). In this example, the
acccession for accession area "B" would be created first.
But since it's in parallel with accession area "A" the
software first creates an accession for accession area "A",
then uses acccession area's "A" accession number for
accession area's "B" accession. Next when the Lab software
attempted to put tests on accession area "A" it detected
that the UID existed and generated the alternate UID using
This patch will address a locking problem concerning the LRO global and
"00" as the NUMERIC IDENTIFIER even though it was the
same accession.
Solution: modified code in routine LRX to only generate an alternate
UID if the UID exists and is not for the same accession.

the LRDPA routine. After installing patch LR*5.2*153, general lab users
can no longer add patients to the PATIENT file (#2) even though the
ALLOW LAB TO ADD PATIENTS field (#13) of the LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9)
is set to YES. Part of patch LR*5.2*153 was intended to eliminate first
level addition of entries to the Patient file, but provide a second level
entry. Patch LR*5.2*211 restores this second level entry ability.
1. The first problem (as reported by Washington in NOIS # WAS-1297-20917)
is encountered when using the VIC card magnetic stripe to identify
patients within the Lab module. Prior to patch LR*5.2*211, the system
would not recognize the data transmitted from the Veteran's ID Card as a
valid patient identifier. With the installation of patch LR*5.2*211, the
data contained in the magnetic stripe will be interpreted appropriately.

NLT Mapping to LOINC LR*5.2*215
Veteran Affairs, has agreed to use LOINC to identify test results.
NLT Mapping to the Logical Observation Identifier Names and Codes (LOINC)
has the following features:
Provides a method to communicate across laboratories in support of Clinical
Information Resource Network (CIRN) by mapping VistA lab test to LOINC codes.
Provides sets of universal names and ID codes for identifying laboratory
and clinical test results.
The purpose of the National Laboratory Test (NLT) Mapping to the Logical
Allows the creation of a uniform naming convention for clinical terms.
Allows the merging of clinical data across sites (where terminology may vary
widely.)
Requires the adoption of naming or coding conventions, and the mapping of
local terminology to these conventions.
Maps the WKLD CODE file(#64) file to LOINC codes.
Observation Identifier Names and Codes (LOINC) is to provide the mapping of
Chemistry tests result codes, and the standardization of files used in the
Laboratory Software Package. Standardizing codes allows the movement of
tests results from one computer system to another. This includes sharing
information with both Veterans Health Information Systems and Technology

- DESCRIPTION:
RECONCILE AUTOPSY DATA DISCREPANCY
Upon investigation, it has been determined that in-patient autopsy numbers for
patients whose treating specialty had changed since they were originally logged
in, were being totaled in the wrong treating specialty, or omitted from the
report all together. This resulted in subtotals not reconciling back to the
grand total. The solution is to create an 'Exceptions List' at the bottom of
the report. This list displays the autopsy accession number, it's current
treating specialty from the FACILITY TREATING SPECIALTY field (#.09) of the
PATIENT MOVEMENT file (#405), and its original treating specialty from the
TREATING SPECIALTY AT DEATH field (#14.6) of the LAB DATA file (#63). It also
displays the total number of exceptions listed. The subtotals by treating
specialty plus the total number of exceptions now reconciles back to the grand
total number of autopsies performed. This also gives the site the necessary
information to update the LAB DATA file (#63) with the current treating
specialty number.
This patch corrects a problem with option [LRAPQOR] QA Outcome Review Cases.
This report's function is to break out by treating specialty, the number of
autopsies performed over a given period of time. On the last page of the
report, it lists the total number of autopsies performed in the given date
range. Under this total, the number of autopsies, subtotaled by treating
specialty, are listed. These subtotals are not reconciling back to the grand
total number of autopsies.

Changes Made By Patch LR*5.2*221:
=================================
In the past, laboratory users were able to delete all traces of an order

discrepancy between ward-printed documents and laboratory data files. In
addition, if the tests were downloaded to automated instruments or LEDI

Host Laboratory, the result entry could produce corrupt Laboratory patient
records.
It was also possible in certain situations for deleted accession numbers
or order numbers to be assigned to two different patients.
The major component of this patch is to maintain a record of all ordered
procedures, ensuring that integrity of accession numbers is preserved.
This is accomplished in the following manner:
This DISPOSITION field (#5) is used to enter a DISPOSITION status for an
1. Accessioned tests must be either canceled (canc), result entered and
verified (this includes entering test comment) or designated 'Not
Performed' and a reason entered. The date, time, and the person entering
the 'Not Performed' reason will be stored in the laboratory patient
record. In addition, the ACCESSION file (#68), and where appropriate, LAB
ORDER ENTRY file (#69) will be updated to reflect the 'Not Performed'
status. The CPRS order status is changed to completed if 'SERVICE
CORRECTION' is used as the 'Cancellation Reason'.
2. If the site makes use of Interim Reports, in addition to the current

function, the software will also display those accessions that have the
status of 'Not Performed'. The software will not display the 'Not
Performed' tests if there are any results entered but not verified.
3. If it is determined at a later point, that a 'Not Performed' test
should be performed, the software will allow results to be entered and the
'Not Performed' reason can be removed by the user.
4. The new 'Not Performed' test status corrects numerous problems with

4. Users may remain on the system, but installation
should be done during off peak hours and when
been created. This disposition is assigned to a test that is not performed
the Laboratory computer users are idle.
5. No options need to be placed out of service.
6. Installation time is less than 10 minutes during
offpeak hours, and less than 15 minutes during
peak hours which is NOT RECOMMENDED.
7. Installation of this patch does not require any
additional memory space.
8. From the 'Installation Menu' of the KIDS menu,
run the option 'Install Package(s)'. Select the
package 'LR*5.2*221' and proceed with the

remove data from the LAH global based on the date original result was
received or last updated.
The Clear instrument/worklist data [LRINSTCLR] option will now allow
clearing by either of the following ways:
a. Data received before the selected date (optional time) is purged. If
you enter a date only then data received before that date is cleared.
b. If you enter a date/time then data received before that date/time is
cleared.

e. If during the clearing process an entry in LAH is found with no
date/time for creation/update then the current date/time is added to the
entry. This entry is then eligible for clearing the next time the option
is run and it meets the date/time parameter.

11. The option 'Turnaround times By Urgency' [LR TAT URGENCY] has been
modified to count only those tests that have been counted for Workload. In
order for a test to be counted it must have WKLD Code assigned and
routines identified in Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Directive
verified results. NOIS: BAY-0798-31877
12. Various non-Microbiology Result Entry options were modified to
accommodate 'Not Performed' test status.
13. The option 'Ward lab menu' [LRWARDM] entry action routine has been
corrected not to set the variable LREND if no ward is selected. If no ward
was selected unpredictable software behavior could result. NOISs:
FHM-0897-51017, NCH-0596-40125, CLA-0598-20356
14. The INCOMPLETE TEST STATUS REPORT [LRWRKINC] option sorting/searching

capability was enhanced.
Example:
If you answer "YES" to the prompt: Specify detailed sort criteria? No//
Then you will be able to specify:
- If controls should be excluded.
- Specific tests to search for.
- A lab arrival time. This will exclude uncollected specimens,

and specimens with a later arrival time.
- Exclude non-required tests.
- Exclude selected test(s) from report.
- If report is generated for specific test(s) which are
panels, then the user can have the report check the tests that
make up the panel.
15. The 'Incomplete test status report' [LRWRKINC] option has been
modified to honor tests having 'Not Performed' status and not include them
on the incomplete test list.
16. Test that have rolled over can be verified by either the original
accession number or the rolled over accession number and the test will be
marked completed on both accession numbers. NOISs: CIN-0998-41790,

29. The routine LRVR4 has been modified not to expand lab descriptions
when processing instrument comments. This can have undesirable effects -
expands comments when it is not required, makes comments too long and they
will not be stored.
30. Incremental locks have been added to routines LROE and LR7OF5 to
correct CPRS orders not being receipted properly.
31. In the past, those entries in the LAB DESCRIPTION file (#62.5) not

status the same as verified test except there is no test result. Instead
prevented the use of the same code for two different areas. For example 1+

- Resolution: Regardless of where in the queue a report is added, if the
report record does not have the provider listed for any reason, the
word "UNKNOWN" will be stuffed as the provider.
NOTE--this issue has only been reported at one site and is not easily
reproducible. The validity of the fix for this will be internally
verified by development under controlled conditions only. This
option does not contain any safety critical functions for the
blood bank.
Problem # 9:
processing of blood components for a patient have been modified to
When using the option Disposition - relocation [LRBLIDR] there were a
variety of reported problems with the lookup for LOCATION to relocate
blood to.
NOIS: IND-1296-40311 BRX-0597-11400 LEB-0199-20568
- Resolution: The lookup routine LRUC was rewritten. It now uses
FileMan utilities to look up valid locations based on the division of
the user at sign-on.

flagged as expiring today when re-displayed to the user. This was ONLY a
flag problem. The actual expiration date of the unit always reflected
the date correctly as input.
NOIS: LEX-0197-40288
- Resolution: The option has been edited so that the flags for units

displayed.
Problem # 11:
During the background process of collecting workload for Blood Bank
accessions, result data was being inappropriately stuffed into fields
which had been starred for deletion. This data was then printing on the
Accession area worklist [LRUWL] report.
NOIS: ATG-0895-32603
-Resolution: The collection of workload data no longer stuffs result data
into inappropriate fields.
Problem # 12:
As of April 23, 1999 the VistA BLOOD BANK Software (v 5.2) is classified
as a Medical Device # BK970021 with the FDA. According to VHA Directive
97-033, Section 4. ACTION part b., the CIOFO would embed in the form of a
comment in routines that contain the controlled software a statement that
the routine should not be modified. According to FDA, if a facility
other than the original software manufacturer makes any changes to the
cleared device, including changes to the software components of the
medical device, this software no longer represents the cleared medical
device and the facility making the modification becomes the medical
device manufacturer of a new medical device.
Problem # 2:
- Resolution: Routines classified as Group A in VHA Directive 97-033
will have the following verbiage inserted in the third line:
; Per VHA Directive 97-033, this routine should not be modified.
Medical Device # BK970021
Problem # 13:
The Patient Merge software introduced a problem in the database
that has affected the way some of the Lab routines determine the
LABORATORY REFERENCE field (#2,63) from the PATIENT File (#2).
- Resolution: Routines LRBLPAB and LRBLPD1 have been modified to use the
It was discovered during Y2K testing of the Donor module of the Blood
function $$LRDFN^L7OR1(DFN) to determine a patient's LRDFN. This
function was introduced in LR*5.2*230 as a defensive programming
measure to prevent an undefined error from occurring when attempting to
determine the LRDFN from the ^DPT(DFN,"LR") node.
Problem # 14:
There may be some old post-init or otherwise unnecessary routines at
sites. These will be removed during the KIDS install if they are
present.
-Resolution: If present on a system, routines LRBLFIX, LRBLFX72,
Bank package that when donor collection information is entered into the
LRBLJ, LRBLPOST, LRBLCON and LRBLXREF will be removed as part of the
KIDS Install.
Problem # 15:
It was reported by Milwaukee via a mail message that when a blood bank
specimen is drawn on one day but not actually accessioned until the next
day, under certain circumstances an undefined error would occur when a
tech attempts to assign units which require crossmatch using the option
Select units for patients [LRBLPIC]. Upon further investigation it was
discovered that the option was attempting to update the field COMPLETION
computer, future times are allowed when entering the fields DATE/TIME
TIME (#68.14,1) for workload purposes. It was further determined that
when the error did not occur, the incorrect workload record was being
updated. It is actually inappropriate to update this field as it is set
when the original accession has the ABO/Rh and ABS results entered.
-Resolution: Coding has been changed so that the field COMPLETION DATE
(#68.14,1)is no longer updated as a result of using the option Select
units for patients [LRBLPIC].
Problem # 16:
The patch LR*5.2*72 inadvertently exported a change in the length of the
COLLECTION STARTED (#65.54,4.2) and DATE/TIME COLLECTION COMPLETED
text allowed in the BLOOD PRODUCT File (#66) field SYNONYM (#66.021,.01).
This resulted in sites being restricted to 5 character synonyms for
entries made to this field after installation of that patch.
-Resolution: The data dictionary for this field is being re-exported and
the SYNONYM field (#66.021,.01) field will now be allowed to accept
entries from 1-25 characters.
a full description please see the Patch Description in the Forum Patch
(#65.54,4.3). This posed a problem during testing in the system being
used for Y2K testing. The scenario where a unit is collected on
12-31-1999 but data is not entered until 12-1-2000 and the date/times
being entered as 12-31@0800 defaults to the current year, which is a
future time. This should not be allowed.
NOIS: ISA-1099-13117
- Resolution: The input transforms of the affected fields will be edited
so that no future dates are allowed.
Problem # 3:
Module.
It was reported by a site via an Outlook message that when logging in
units using the option Log-in regular (invoices) [LRBLILR] and the
barcode scanner is used, if a site's supplier uses Expiration Date
barcodes utilizing a 4 digit year, then the display to the user seems to
indicate that the scanner did not interpret the code correctly. The
correct expiration date was in fact being assigned to the unit, however,
the software was interpreting the input as if the user was manually
inputting the expiration date. This could cause some confusion at sites.
- Resolution: The routine which interprets barcodes has been modified so
that the barcode scanner itself is interpreting the expiration date.
Problem # 4:
The input screen for the fields DIVISION in the BLOOD INVENTORY File
(#65,.16) and ASSOCIATED DIVISION in the BLOOD PRODUCT File (#66.1,.01)
incorrectly made the assumption that a site's division was dinumed to the
INSTITUTION File (#4).
NOIS: WPB-1196-31737
- Resolution: The screen in the following input transforms have been
changed to S DIC("S")="I +$G(^DIC(4,+Y,99))=+$P($$SITE^VASITE,U,3)"
D ^DIC K DIC S DIC=DIE,X=+Y K:Y<0 X"
Problem # 1:
BLOOD INVENTORY File (#65) field DIVISION (#65,.16)
BLOOD PRODUCT File (#66) field ASSOCIATED DIVISION (# 66.1,.01)
Problem # 5:
In a multidivisional site, if the report Patient transfusions &
hematology results [LRBLPCH] crashed for any reason, it could not be
restarted if the name of the Blood Bank accession area was not BLOOD
BANK. This is because in order to restart the crashed report, the option
Delete a user's patient list [LRBLSDPL] needed to be run first. This
option had the accession area hard coded to be BLOOD BANK therefore would
It was determined by the VistA IV&V Y2K testing analysis that several
not always work in a multidivisional site with more than one Blood Bank.
NOIS: BHS-0899-12185
- Resolution: The option Delete a user's patient list [LRBLSDPL] was
modified to determine the accession area for the Blood Bank based on
the user's division at sign-on. Previously, the accession area was
hard-coded to be BLOOD BANK.
NOTE-- the resolution to this problem will not be validated at the sites
as it is not practical to ask sites to force a system crash. The
validity of the fix for this will be internally verified by
development under controlled conditions only. This option does
displays within the Blood Bank software that historically displayed
not contain any safety critical functions for the blood bank.
Problem # 6:
When a unit which was originally scanned during log-in is modified, such
as thawing or irradiating, the unit could no longer be processed using a
scanner. This affected both the Blood Bank as well as the Surgical Risk
Initiative.
NOIS: HIN-1196-40687 ALB-0298-52583

pooled or split) the ^LRD(65,"C", cross-reference is now built if the
scanner was used to process the modification.
Problem # 7:
It was discovered during internal testing by the developer that units
that are modified in error, and the option Edit unit log in [LRBLSEL] is
used to either edit or delete the modified unit, the ^LRD(65,"C",
cross-reference was not being updated appropriately.
- Resolution: Coding was changed to update the ^LRD(65,"C"
cross-reference as appropriate when units are edited.
NOIS: ISP-0899-N0355
Problem # 8:
When executing the option Print all BB patient reports on print queue
[LRBLP PRINT ALL ON QUEUE] if for some reason the first patient blood
bank report added to the print queue doesn't have a PROVIDER the report
bombs with an undefined and none of the reports will print. Also, if a
patient blood bank report added in the middle of the queue doesn't have a
provider, the report will print the provider of the report just
previously added to the queue.

Notice that some of the names listed show no data in the Age, Acc #,
Organ/tissue, and Morphology columns. These are year 2000 accessions. All
1999 accessions still reported correctly.
It was discovered that the two digit year was being used as a subscript in
the ^TMP global which stores that data temporarily so that it may be
procedure, function, or diagnosis code. The menu is shown below:
printed. The two digit year subscript is extracted from dates in the LAB DATA
file (#63) as follows:
Surgical Pathology: DATE/TIME SPECIMEN RECEIVED field (#.1) of SURGICAL
PATHOLOGY (sub-field #8, Sub-file #63.08)
Cytopathology: DATE/TIME SPECIMEN RECEIVED field (#.1) of
CYTOPATHOLOGY (sub-field #9, Sub-file #63.09)
Electron Microscopy: DATE/TIME SPECIMEN RECEIVED field (#.1) of EM
(sub-field #2, Sub-file #63.02)
Autopsy: AUTOPSY DATE/TIME field (#11)
The year subscript is created by extracting the second and third characters
of the date. For example, if the date is 2991031.0800, the year subscript
will be 99. If the date is 3001031.0800, the year subscript will be 00.
Here is an example:
^TMP(545305223,99,2) = AU 99 2^20^M^WINKERBEAN,FUNKY^5533^10/14^2
^TMP(545305223,99,2,151,0) = BRAIN
^TMP(545305223,99,2,151,41770) = ABSCESS, DRAINING
MC MORPHOLOGY code search, SNOMED [LRAPSM]
^TMP(545305223,"00",1) = AU 00 1^81^M^FULTON,CHESTER E.^5537^1/13^2
^TMP(545305223,"00",1,395,0) = SKIN BETWEEN FOURTH AND FIFTH TOES
^TMP(545305223,"00",1,395,"02060") = SADDLE SHAPE
The second subscript is the two digit year. Subscript "00" was confusing
the code causing it to quit before executing the portion of code that
prints the age, accession number, organ/tissue, and morphology.
The problem has been corrected by including the century indicator when
creating the second subscript. For year 1999, the subscript will be 299.
DC DISEASE code search, SNOMED [LRAPSD]
For year 2000, the subscript will be 300. See below:
^TMP(545305223,299,2) = AU 99 2^20^M^WINKERBEAN,FUNKY^5533^10/14^2
^TMP(545305223,299,2,151,0) = BRAIN
^TMP(545305223,299,2,151,41770) = ABSCESS, DRAINING
^TMP(545305223,300,1) = AU 00 1^81^M^FULTON,CHESTER E.^5537^1/13^2
^TMP(545305223,300,1,395,0) = SKIN BETWEEN FOURTH AND FIFTH TOES
^TMP(545305223,300,1,395,"02060") = SADDLE SHAPE
This change to the ^TMP global structure has corrected the problem.

converted to use Kernel date conversion utilities.
15. Edit or Print WKLD CODES [LR WKLD CODE EDIT PRINT] option is enhanced
to print all WKLD CODES, even if they have not been activated. This will
correct the problem of WKLD CODES that have a suffix of .0000 not

Laboratory Menu and Option Changes:
============================
The Laboratory CPT Code Modifier enhancement patch LR*5.2*243 provides the

The new Inactive WKLD CODE File CPT Codes Print [LRCAPCPTI] option scans
Laboratory Version 5.2 software application the ability to transmit
the WKLD CODE file (#64) for code(s) that are no longer allowed or code(s)
that are inactive in the CPT file (#81). The "WKLD CODE - CODE CHECK
REPORT" is then generated displaying all CPT code(s) that are no longer
allowed, code(s) that are inactive and why they are inappropriate,
laboratory test names linked to WKLD code(s) (i.e., laboratory test names
listed on the report will not receive PCE Workload credit), and code(s)
requiring a different entry in the CPT file (#81) in order to capture PCE
Workload data.
The new Inactive WKLD CODE File CPT Codes Print [LRCAPCPTI] option is also
Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes and Modifiers to the Patient
useful when a new CPT Code file is released (i.e., new CPT code files are
usually distributed annually). The new CPT Code files may contain codes
that are no longer allowed or codes that are inactive in the VISTA CPT
file (#81). When CPT codes defined in the WKLD CODE file (#64) are deemed
inactive in the CPT file (#81), then the software enters a date in the
WKLD CODE file (#64), Inactive Date field (#3) for those inactive codes.
The Laboratory PCE interface checks each CPT code in the WKLD CODE file
(#64) before sending CPT workload to the PCE API. Whenever CPT code(s) are
no longer allowed or has been inactivated a VA Mailman message containing
the "WKLD CODE - CODE CHECK REPORT" is sent once a day to the LMI mail

Post Installation Instructions:
After the new file structures have been installed the post installation
software will perform the following:
1. Review each code to determine if the code is valid and has not been
inactivated in the CPT file (#81). If the code is inactive or erroneous,
the code is removed. The software will record the code removal in the WKLD
CODE NOTES field (#24). A MailMan message addressed to the local LMI mail
group will be generated if any codes are removed.
2. The data in the file is converted to the new data structure of the WKLD
CODE file (#64).
3. ASSOCIATED NAMES in the WKLD CODE file (#64) are updated to reflect
current linkages.

PCE Workload Capture Setup:
The Laboratory Information Manager (LIM) or the Information Resource
Management (IRM) service must do setup several procedure files/fields.
NOTE: The asterisk (*) indicates new enhancements for patch LR*5.2*243.
1. The LAB SERVICE package V. 5.2 must be installed. This is done by IRM.
2. PCE workload must be turned on for Laboratory. Someone other than the
pointers are broken. If inactive code(s) are found, a VA Mailman message
LIM usually does this.
3. PCE PATIENT CARE ENCOUNTER Version 1.0 must be loaded on the system and
fully patched. This is done by IRM.
4. The LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9), WKLD STATS ON field (#17) must be set
to YES. This is usually done by the LIM.
5. The LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9), PCE/VSIT ON field (#615) definition
entry should be defined other than OFF, the recommended entry is PCE/VSIT
Category: DATA DICTIONARY
is automatically generated and sent once a day to the LMI Mail Group
ONLY. The VA FileMan Enter Edit [DIEDIT] option is used to defined the
PCE/VSIT ON field (#615). This is done by the LIM or IRM.
6. The LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9), PCE DEFAULT PROVIDER field (#617)
should have a valid active provider identified. This is usually the Chief
of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine (P&LMS). The PCE DEFAULT PROVIDER
field (#617) in the past was required for the background job to run. This
patch no longer requires a valid entry in this field. This field is used
whenever the ordering provider is not a valid active provider; the default
provider is substituted instead of the inactive provider. If the ordering
containing information about the code(s) and the action(s) taken by the
provider and the default provider are both invalid the order will be
marked and skipped. A report will be sent to the local mail group G.LMI
indicating the observed problem. This usually done by the LIM.
7. The LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9), DEFAULT LAB OOS LOCATION (#.8) field
must have a valid HOSPITAL LOCATION defined. This field is defined by
using the Create Laboratory OOS Locations [LR WKLD LOCATION] option. This
option will correctly name the DEFAULT LAB OOS location entry. This is
usually done by the LIM.
NOTE: This is a critical field entry. The CPT Workload capture will not be

performed if this field has no entry or the entry is correct. All DEFAULT
LAB OOS LOCATION names must begin with 'LAB DIV '
8. The MAILMAN SITE PARAMETERS file (#4.3), DEFAULT INSTITUTION field
(#217) must be defined. This is done by IRM.
* 9. The LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9), DEFAULT BLOOD SPECIMEN field (#100)
must have a valid blood specimen defined. This is done by the LIM.
10. Each Accession area that should have workload collected must have the
accession area activated. The accession area is activated by using the
Turn on workload stats for accession area [LR WKLD STATS ON ACC AREA]
option. This is done by the LIM.
11. Each accession area can have a default Occasion of Service (OOS)
location defined. This allows each accession area to be assigned a
specific DEFAULT OOS LOCATION. Multi-divisional sites most often use this.
The default OOS location can be defined by using the Edit ACC Area OOS
Locations [LR WKLD ACC AREA LOCATION] option. A DEFAULT OOS LOCATION
should be defined for each institution generating workload. This is done
*3. The enhanced Laboratory workload software processes the workload data
by the LIM.
12. Every orderable test in LABORATORY TEST file (#60) must be linked to a
NATIONAL VA LAB CODE (also referred to as WKLD CODE or NLT codes). The
NATIONAL VA LAB CODE is linked by using the Semi-automatic Linking of file
60 to 64 [LR7O 60-64 AUTO] and Manual Linking of file 60 to 64 [LR7O 60-64
MANUAL] options. This is done by the LIM.
13. Each WKLD CODE linked in the above step must be assigned valid CPT
codes, these CPT codes will be used to report workload to the Patient Care
in LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9), PCE DEFAULT PROVIDER field (#617) and LAB
Encounter (PCE) workload API. This is done by using the Edit or Print WKLD
CODES [LR WKLD CODE EDIT PRINT] option. This is done by the LIM.
Software Logic:
After the file setup steps have been completed, the software logic of the
background job will use the above-defined fields. The software will scan
collected orders, extract all valid CPT codes, and pass the CPT workload
data to the PCE workload API. In addition, the software will also will

capture LMIP venipuncture workload for ALL patients without regard for
location type.
NOTE: Outpatient locations are entries in HOSPITAL LOCATION file (#44)
that have the TYPE field (#2) defined as; CLINIC, MODULE or OTHER.
The software uses the cross reference of
^LR(69,"AA",ORDER NUMBER, SPECIMEN) to determine what orders have been
collected. The software orders through the cross-reference and examines
each order number using the following:
Mailman report is automatically generated and sent to the LMI mail group
1. The order status must be collected.
2. The order must be for a Patient from the PATIENT file (#2).
*3. For venipuncture (specimen collection) workload capture ONLY,
collection type must be one of the following:
Laboratory Collect (LC) = Venipuncture Travel Time - 89341.0000
Immediate Collect (I) = Venipuncture Travel Time - 89341.0000
once a day indicating those orders requiring additional attention because
Send Patient (SP) = Venipuncture Outpatient - 89343.0000
*Note: Collection type is only used for venipuncture workload capture.
Collection type has no bearing on CPT workload capture.
Both In-Patient and Outpatient receive LMIP venipuncture workload credit.
4. The ordering provider is validated as a current active provider. If the
ordering provider is not valid, the default provider will be used if the
default provider is valid. If neither of the providers is valid, the order
is marked appropriately and skipped.
the default fields were not defined.
5. CPT workload is only collected for Out-Patients based on HOSPITAL
LOCATION file (#44) that have the TYPE field (#2) defined as: CLINIC,
MODULE, or OTHER LOCATION. Venipuncture workload is NOT controlled by
HOSPITAL LOCATION type.
*6. This patch uses the INSTITUTION field (#3) of the HOSPITAL LOCATION
file (#44) to determine the institution that should receive CPT workload
credit. If the INSTITUTION field (#3) is not defined then the DEFAULT
INSTITUTION is used.
NOTE: See step 8 of the Setup instructions.
ENHANCEMENT
7. Each test is checked to ensure that it does not have the status of
CANCEL or NOT PERFORMED before CPT workload is processed.
8. Each test is checks the accession area's LAB OOS LOCATION. If defined
the accession area's LAB OOS LOCATION is used.

*12. Each CPT code is checked to make sure it is valid (active). Each CPT
code is checked for allowed modifiers. If there are multiple occurrences
of identical CPT codes, the software will automatically add the modifier
DISTINCT PROCEDURAL SERVICE (59) to each succeeding CPT code if this
modifier is allowable.
13. The specimen DATE/TIME OF COLLECTION is used as the encounter date

considerations or complete file setup instructions.
************************
1. *Patch LR*5.2*243 will automatically collects venipuncture workload
data identical to other types of collected workload data. Venipuncture
workload data will appear on workload reports broken down by standard
reporting criteria.
enhancement applies to both verifying by accession number or UID
2. Originally, LMIP workload reporting did not include venipuncture as a
billable procedure; therefore, the software entered a manual style tally
of totals for the institution by day. Now LMIP workload does allow
venipuncture workload. This patch automatically captures venipuncture by
institution, by date, by WKLD CODE, and by event time and stores them in
the WKLD DATA (#64.1) file. Certain data elements are required when
recording workload. One of the required data elements is accession area.
Therefore, some accession area must be utilized to satisfy the required
data field. This patch provides new fields that can be used to customize
data collection.
(Universal Identification).
3. The venipuncture workload ACTUALLY indicates that the laboratory
obtained at least one specimen from the patient.
NOTE: THE SPECIMEN OBTAINED MAY NOT BE A BLOOD SPECIMEN. WHAT THE DEFAULT
CODES (venipuncture) INDICATES IS THAT THE LAB COLLECTED A SPECIMEN FOR
THIS PARTICULAR ORDER. ONLY 1 SPECIMEN COLLECTION WORKLOAD UNIT PER ORDER
IS CAPTURED REGARDLESS OF THE NUMBER OF ACTUAL SPECIMENS COLLECTED FOR THE
ORDER.
4. Specimen Collection workload codes of Venipuncture Travel Time
[89341.0000] is the default code for Lab Collect (LC) and Immediate
Collect (I). Specimen Collection WKLD CODE of Venipuncture Outpatient
[89343.0000] is default code for Send Patient (SP).
5. *Venipuncture workload is captured based on INSTITUTION field (#3) in
the HOSPITAL LOCATION file (#44) of the ordering location. If no
INSTITUTION is defined, the default institution defined by MAILMAN will be
used.
* There is a new field exported with this patch. The DIVISION PARAMETERS
*10. Batch data entry [LRSTUF] option is modified to capture LMIP workload
field (#618) is a multiple in the LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9). There are
two fields in the DIVISION PARAMETERS field (#618) multiple that can be
used to customize the venipuncture workload collection.
- DIVISION PARAMETER field (#.01) points to the INSTITUTION file (#4).
This field will allow the LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9) to be
multi-divisional.
- PHLEBOTOMY DEFAULT ACC AREA field (#618) points to the ACCESSION file
(#68).
6. * The software will examine the ordering location for the INSTITUTION
counts.
that location is assigned. The software will look up in the LABORATORY
SITE file (#69.9), DIVISION PARAMETERS subfile (#) to get the ACCESSION
area to be used when storing venipuncture workload. The MAJ. SECT and the
SUBSECTION fields in WKLD DATA (#64.1) file will be set to ACCESSION area
defined.
Note: The default venipuncture ACCESSION area is HEMATOLOGY.
LAB DIVISION is CLINICAL PATHOLOGY
Date and Time is the SPECIMEN COLLECTION date/time.
The LAB TEST is the first collected test in the order.
Description:
7. * The Venipuncture workload capture assumes that there is an accession
area that begins with the letters 'HEM'. If there is no accession area
beginning with the letters 'HEM', then venipuncture default accession area

14. The Review by order number [LRCENLKUP] option date displays is
converted to use Kernel date conversion utilities.
15. Edit or Print WKLD CODES [LR WKLD CODE EDIT PRINT] option is enhanced
to print all WKLD CODES, even if they have not been activated. This will
correct the problem of WKLD CODES that have a suffix of .0000 not
printing.
16. Workload Report [LRCAPR1] option has been enhanced to allow the user
to select combinations of LEDI collecting institutions or Hospital
locations.
17. When verifying Microbiology specimens the user is prompted for
additional workload. A screen has been added to allow only a number
between 1 to 25. This is to prevent inadvertent entering of WKLD CODE
number instead of the multiply by number.
Laboratory Menu and Option Changes:
============================
The Laboratory CPT Code Modifier enhancement patch LR*5.2*263 provides the
LIM workload menu [LR LIM/WKLD MENU]
The LIM workload menu [LR LIM/WKLD MENU] is modified to add the new
InActive WKLD CODE File CPT Codes Print [LRCAPCPTI] option.
New Option
InActive WKLD CODE File CPT Codes Print [LRCAPCPTI] option
The new Inactive WKLD CODE File CPT Codes Print [LRCAPCPTI] option scans
Laboratory Version 5.2 software application the ability to transmit
the WKLD CODE file (#64) for code(s) that are no longer allowed or code(s)
that are inactive in the CPT file (#81). The "WKLD CODE - CODE CHECK
REPORT" is then generated displaying all CPT code(s) that are no longer
allowed, code(s) that are inactive and why they are inappropriate,
laboratory test names linked to WKLD code(s) (i.e., laboratory test names
listed on the report will not receive PCE Workload credit), and code(s)
requiring a different entry in the CPT file (#81) in order to capture PCE
Workload data.
The new Inactive WKLD CODE File CPT Codes Print [LRCAPCPTI] option is also
Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes and Modifiers to the Patient
useful when a new CPT Code file is released (i.e., new CPT code files are
usually distributed annually). The new CPT Code files may contain codes
that are no longer allowed or codes that are inactive in the VISTA CPT
file (#81). When CPT codes defined in the WKLD CODE file (#64) are deemed
inactive in the CPT file (#81), then the software enters a date in the
WKLD CODE file (#64), Inactive Date field (#3) for those inactive codes.
The Laboratory PCE interface checks each CPT code in the WKLD CODE file
(#64) before sending CPT workload to the PCE API. Whenever CPT code(s) are
no longer allowed or has been inactivated a VA Mailman message containing
the "WKLD CODE - CODE CHECK REPORT" is sent once a day to the LMI mail

Data Dictionary Change Summary:
The following file and field changes occur with the installation of VISTA
Laboratory CPT Code and Modifiers Patch LR*5.2*263.
WKLD CODE file (#64)
The WKLD CODE file (#64) was modified to convert existing file data to
method of workload reporting several new fields were created and the
a new data structure, new fields were created, and existing fields were
modified to support the Laboratory workload reporting enhancements of CPT
codes and modifiers.
1) CODE field (#18) multiple has been changed from a free text field to a
variable pointer.
2) CODE field (#.01) has been changed from a free text field to a variable
pointer. This field is screened to allow only active code entries to the
MORPHOLOGY FIELD file (#61.1), ICD DIAGNOSIS file (#80), and CPT file
Laboratory software logic was modified.
(#81).
3) CODE subfile (#64.018) was modified to add the new CODE NOTES field
(#6). This new word processing field is used for tracking general notes
regarding a particular code.
4) WKLD Code Notes field (#24) is a new word processing field used for
storing general notes regarding inactive or erroneous code(s) that is
automatically removed by the software.
5) LOINC Code field (#4) was changed to point to the LOINC CODE file
(#95.3).
6) The new Default LOINC Code field (#25) points to the LOINC CODE file
(#95.3). This field is used to identify the default LOINC code. This
field is usually used when the specimen is not clinically significant
(i.e. body fluids). 'L FOR LOINC' was removed from the set of codes in
field TYPE (#64.018,5).
LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9)

customize the automated Venipuncture workload reporting functionality.
2) The new DIVISION PARAMETERS field (#.01) points to the INSTITUTION file
(#4). This field allows the LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9) to be
multi-divisional for Venipuncture workload reporting.
3) The new VENIPUNCTURE DEFAULT ACC AREA subfile (#618) points to the

1. The LAB SERVICE package V. 5.2 must be installed. This is done by IRM.
2. PCE workload must be turned on for Laboratory. Someone other than the
LIM usually does this.
3. PCE PATIENT CARE ENCOUNTER Version 1.0 must be loaded on the system and
fully patched. This is done by IRM.

is automatically generated and sent once a day to the LMI Mail Group
4. The LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9), WKLD STATS ON field (#17) must be set
to YES. This is usually done by the LIM.
5. The LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9), PCE/VSIT ON field (#615) definition
entry should be defined other than OFF, the recommended entry is PCE/VSIT
ONLY. The VA FileMan Enter Edit [DIEDIT] option is used to defined the
PCE/VSIT ON field (#615). This is done by the LIM or IRM.
6. The LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9), PCE DEFAULT PROVIDER field (#617)
should have a valid active provider identified. This is usually the Chief
containing information about the code(s) and the action(s) taken by the
of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine (P&LMS). The PCE DEFAULT PROVIDER
field (#617) in the past was required for the background job to run. This
patch no longer requires a valid entry in this field. This field is used
whenever the ordering provider is not a valid active provider; the default
provider is substituted instead of the inactive provider. If the ordering
provider and the default provider are both invalid the order will be
marked and skipped. A report will be sent to the local mail group G.LMI
indicating the observed problem. This usually done by the LIM.
7. The LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9), DEFAULT LAB OOS LOCATION (#.8) field
software.
must have a valid HOSPITAL LOCATION defined. This field is defined by
using the Create Laboratory OOS Locations [LR WKLD LOCATION] option. This
option will correctly name the DEFAULT LAB OOS location entry. This is
usually done by the LIM.
NOTE: This is a critical field entry. The CPT Workload capture will not be
performed if this field has no entry or the entry is correct. All DEFAULT
LAB OOS LOCATION names must begin with 'LAB DIV '
8. The MAILMAN SITE PARAMETERS file (#4.3), DEFAULT INSTITUTION field
(#217) must be defined. This is done by IRM.
* 9. The LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9), DEFAULT BLOOD SPECIMEN field (#100)
must have a valid blood specimen defined. This is done by the LIM.
10. Each Accession area that should have workload collected must have the
accession area activated. The accession area is activated by using the
Turn on workload stats for accession area [LR WKLD STATS ON ACC AREA]
option. This is done by the LIM.
11. Each accession area can have a default Occasion of Service (OOS)
*3. The enhanced Laboratory workload software processes the workload data
location defined. This allows each accession area to be assigned a
specific DEFAULT OOS LOCATION. Multi-divisional sites most often use this.
The default OOS location can be defined by using the Edit ACC Area OOS
Locations [LR WKLD ACC AREA LOCATION] option. A DEFAULT OOS LOCATION
should be defined for each institution generating workload. This is done
by the LIM.
12. Every orderable test in LABORATORY TEST file (#60) must be linked to a
NATIONAL VA LAB CODE (also referred to as WKLD CODE or NLT codes). The
NATIONAL VA LAB CODE is linked by using the Semi-automatic Linking of file
in LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9), PCE DEFAULT PROVIDER field (#617) and LAB
60 to 64 [LR7O 60-64 AUTO] and Manual Linking of file 60 to 64 [LR7O 60-64
MANUAL] options. This is done by the LIM.
13. Each WKLD CODE linked in the above step must be assigned valid CPT
codes, these CPT codes will be used to report workload to the Patient Care
Encounter (PCE) workload API. This is done by using the Edit or Print WKLD
CODES [LR WKLD CODE EDIT PRINT] option. This is done by the LIM.
Software Logic:

After the file setup steps have been completed, the software logic of the
background job will use the above-defined fields. The software will scan
collected orders, extract all valid CPT codes, and pass the CPT workload
data to the PCE workload API. In addition, the software will also will
capture LMIP venipuncture workload for ALL patients without regard for
location type.
NOTE: Outpatient locations are entries in HOSPITAL LOCATION file (#44)
that have the TYPE field (#2) defined as; CLINIC, MODULE or OTHER.

The software uses the cross reference of
^LR(69,"AA",ORDER NUMBER, SPECIMEN) to determine what orders have been

Collection type has no bearing on CPT workload capture.
Both In-Patient and Outpatient receive LMIP venipuncture workload credit.
the default fields were not defined.
4. The ordering provider is validated as a current active provider. If the
ordering provider is not valid, the default provider will be used if the
default provider is valid. If neither of the providers is valid, the order
is marked appropriately and skipped.
5. CPT workload is only collected for Out-Patients based on HOSPITAL
LOCATION file (#44) that have the TYPE field (#2) defined as: CLINIC,
MODULE, or OTHER LOCATION. Venipuncture workload is NOT controlled by
HOSPITAL LOCATION type.
ENHANCEMENT
*6. This patch uses the INSTITUTION field (#3) of the HOSPITAL LOCATION
file (#44) to determine the institution that should receive CPT workload
credit. If the INSTITUTION field (#3) is not defined then the DEFAULT
INSTITUTION is used.
NOTE: See step 8 of the Setup instructions.
7. Each test is checked to ensure that it does not have the status of
CANCEL or NOT PERFORMED before CPT workload is processed.
8. Each test is checks the accession area's LAB OOS LOCATION. If defined

(#64). The software checks the WKLD CODE file (#64), CODE field (#18) for
CPT codes.
*11. This patch has changed the data dictionary definition of the CODE

field (#18) to a variable pointer. The patch installation will converts
all valid codes to the new file structure and reset the cross-references.
If the code is invalid, the code is removed. A note will be entered in the
WKLD CODE file (#64), WKLD CODE NOTES field (#24) indicating when the
removal occurred.
*12. Each CPT code is checked to make sure it is valid (active). Each CPT
code is checked for allowed modifiers. If there are multiple occurrences
of identical CPT codes, the software will automatically add the modifier

modifier is allowable.
13. The specimen DATE/TIME OF COLLECTION is used as the encounter date

*14. If an Order Test is marked as NOT PERFORMED by the laboratory and CPT
workload has already been sent to PCE, a background job will automatically
send delete CPT workload messages for that order to the PCE Workload API.
NOTE: If the Not Performed test is ultimately verified, no CPT workload is
sent after NOT PERFORMED delete has been sent.
15. The PCE API passes back to the Laboratory software application the
Registered Encounter rather than the user that started or tasked the PCE
encounter number used to store the PCE API passed information. It is
possible for one order to have multiple encounter number based on the
ACCESSION AREA's OOS definition. The PCE encounter number is displayed on
various order status screens in the Visit Number(s).

************************
enhancement applies to both verifying by accession number or UID
1. *Patch LR*5.2*263 will automatically collects venipuncture workload
data identical to other types of collected workload data. Venipuncture
workload data will appear on workload reports broken down by standard
reporting criteria.
2. Originally, LMIP workload reporting did not include venipuncture as a
billable procedure; therefore, the software entered a manual style tally
of totals for the institution by day. Now LMIP workload does allow
venipuncture workload. This patch automatically captures venipuncture by
institution, by date, by WKLD CODE, and by event time and stores them in
(Universal Identification).
the WKLD DATA (#64.1) file. Certain data elements are required when
recording workload. One of the required data elements is accession area.
Therefore, some accession area must be utilized to satisfy the required
data field. This patch provides new fields that can be used to customize
data collection.
3. The venipuncture workload ACTUALLY indicates that the laboratory
obtained at least one specimen from the patient.
NOTE: THE SPECIMEN OBTAINED MAY NOT BE A BLOOD SPECIMEN. WHAT THE DEFAULT
CODES (venipuncture) INDICATES IS THAT THE LAB COLLECTED A SPECIMEN FOR
THIS PARTICULAR ORDER. ONLY 1 SPECIMEN COLLECTION WORKLOAD UNIT PER ORDER
IS CAPTURED REGARDLESS OF THE NUMBER OF ACTUAL SPECIMENS COLLECTED FOR THE
ORDER.
4. Specimen Collection workload codes of Venipuncture Travel Time
[89341.0000] is the default code for Lab Collect (LC) and Immediate
Collect (I). Specimen Collection WKLD CODE of Venipuncture Outpatient
[89343.0000] is default code for Send Patient (SP).
*10. Batch data entry [LRSTUF] option is modified to capture LMIP workload
5. *Venipuncture workload is captured based on INSTITUTION field (#3) in
the HOSPITAL LOCATION file (#44) of the ordering location. If no
INSTITUTION is defined, the default institution defined by MAILMAN will be
used.
* There is a new field exported with this patch. The DIVISION PARAMETERS
field (#618) is a multiple in the LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9). There are
two fields in the DIVISION PARAMETERS field (#618) multiple that can be
used to customize the venipuncture workload collection.
- DIVISION PARAMETER field (#.01) points to the INSTITUTION file (#4).
This field will allow the LABORATORY SITE file (#69.9) to be
counts.
multi-divisional.
- VENIPUNCTURE DEFAULT ACC AREA field (#618) points to the ACCESSION
file (#68).
6. * The software will examine the ordering location for the INSTITUTION
that location is assigned. The software will look up in the LABORATORY
SITE file (#69.9), DIVISION PARAMETERS subfile (#) to get the ACCESSION
area to be used when storing venipuncture workload. The MAJ. SECT and the
SUBSECTION fields in WKLD DATA (#64.1) file will be set to ACCESSION area
defined.
Description:
Note: The default venipuncture ACCESSION area is HEMATOLOGY.
LAB DIVISION is CLINICAL PATHOLOGY
Date and Time is the SPECIMEN COLLECTION date/time.
The LAB TEST is the first collected test in the order.
7. * The Venipuncture workload capture assumes that there is an accession
area that begins with the letters 'HEM'. If there is no accession area
beginning with the letters 'HEM', then venipuncture default accession area
will be the accession area having the internal entry number of 10 in the
ACCESSION file (#68).
11. Results entry (batch) [LRMISTUF] is modified to capture LMIP workload
8. ** This patch creates a new multiple in the LABORATORY SITE file
(#69.9), DIVISION PARAMETERS field (#618). This new multiple will be used
to allow in the future, each institution to have the opportunity to
completely define separate laboratory parameter definitions. The first
entry in this multiple is VENIPUNCTURE DEFAULT ACC AREA field (#618). This
field will allow each institution to define what accession area
venipuncture workload should be assigned. If this field is not defined
then the default Hematology accession area outlined above will be used.

7. It was reported to Lab Development subsequent to release of patch
Zebra Programming Language II - ZPL II(TM).
LR*5.2*161 that depending on label stock and printer alignment,
the 2nd (right side) 1x2 label on the 10 part label stock prints
very close to the left margin when using Intermec 4000 series
printers. The routine LRBARB has been changed to move the
information over 15 dots to the right. This hopefully will provide
enough of a buffer to allow for variation in label stock and printer
calibration and still print legible labels. Site will need to download
format 12 for this change to take affect. Use option Lab Bar Code
Label Formatter [LR BAR CF] to perform this function.
8. NOIS: ATG-1298-31334 reported an undefined error when printing future
collection labels on controls using option Print future collection
labels [LRUFCL]. When printing future collection labels for the
current day and the site has accessioned controls, the option would
error because controls do not have a location entered in file
LAB ORDER ENTRY (#69). This patch corrects this situation by not
attempting to print labels for controls or orders with no location.
9. NOIS: BAY-0999-30794 reported that the option Print single future
collection label [LRUFCLS] would display a misleading message when
RISK ANALYSIS: Changes made by patch LR*5.2*218 have no effect on
attempting to print labels for an order when one of the specimens on
the order has no active tests. This can occur when all tests on a
specimen have been cancelled. The message has been changed to
indicate that only the specimen with no active tests will not be
printed.
10. NOIS: TAM-1299-32916 reported that when the laboratory order number
went over 999,999 that the last digit of the order number was truncated
on the label when printed on Intermec printers. The label formats for

adjusted to print the order number to 7 digits. The text "order #"
which precedes the order number on the label has been standardized
across label formats printed by Intermec and Zebra printers.
The test label available for printing within the Laboratory software
now prints a 7 digit order number.
