- DESCRIPTION:
This patch addresses the issue of one-time meds showing up on the Virtual
Due List from previous movements and even previous admission. As released
the VDL will search back 30 days for one-time orders and display them on
the VDL if there is no associated administration in the BCMA medication
log. With this patch the VDL will now only go back as far as the current
movement eliminating one-time orders from showing up from previous
movements and admissions.

disconnects from the network drive.
2. Pointing the client PC/laptop to the file server.
A. Map each laptop or client PC to the network drive mentioned in the
previous step.
B. Create an icon that points to the file bcma.exe (on the network
drive). Via the icon's properties, set up the necessary command
line parameters to connect to your VistA system.
Using this method, no BCMA files are required on the local client's PC.
When it is time to install the next BCMA GUI patch, have all users log out
of BCMA, install the patch on the file server that is sharing the files
and the upgrade will be complete.
The above installation instructions will only work with patch PSB*1*3 or
later. Previous patches require additional files to be moved to the
shared BCMA directory.
A. To install BCMA on a network drive, install BCMA on the file server
that will perform the file sharing. BCMA is typically installed into
c:\program files\vista\bcma.

Corrective Action: The BCMA Print Label [PSBO BL] option was modified to
perform the drug validate process before the device selection process.
Therefore, the drug validation process will be performed if the system

- APPLIED BY: USER,ONE
- DESCRIPTION:
Install both patches on to the Vista Server and the PSB*3*7
on to the Contingency Workstations as close together as
possible during non-peak times. Since the location of the
Pharmacy Orders "Admin Times" data has been changed
in the HL7 message you could see orders on the workstation
missing this data on orders updated due to transitions of data
during the installation of these patches. The missing data will
correct itself when that order is updated.
Once installed it is suggested that the sites review the
Contingency System reports. Any missing "Admin Times"
can be corrected by running the Single Patient Init
[PSB BCBU INIT SINGLE PT] option or the Workstation
can be re-initialized.
*****************************************************
1. A fix for the '&' delimiter problem with the admin times. The
admin times was moved to another Field of the HL7 message
in the pharmacy patch PSJ*5.0*123.
This patch compensates for the pharmacy change.
*******************Important Note********************
2. When a user was added, edited or terminated, BCMA Contingency
Software would be called and the user would be evaluated,
and if appropriate be transmitted to the BCMA Contingency
Workstations. This evaluation was not occurring correctly.
As a result, all users added, changed or terminated were being
transmitted to the workstations. An additional screen was added
to ensure that only the appropriate users accounts were
transmitted to the workstation.
3. When a user had multiple divisions defined under their user
account and the workstations were setup using the
multidivisional capability the users divisions were not
interpreted correctly. A bug was found in the code that
looped through the user's division multiple and was corrected.
4. The user Update portion of the BCMA Contingency was not checking
the status of the "PSB BKUP ONLINE" parameter. Additional code
was added to check for the status of the "PSB BKUP ONLINE"
Sites running the Bar Code Medication Administration (BCMA)
parameter. If the parameter is set to "NO" then no updates
will be transmitted to the workstation from the user portion
of the package.
Contingency Software must install this patch on all
Contingency workstations in addition to being installed
on to the Vista Server. This patch is being released in
conjunction with the Inpatient Pharmacy patch PSJ*5*123.

Problem:
--------
The VA North Texas Health Care System reported that when displaying and
printing patient order the print out includes removal times for medications
that does not require removal. The source of the problem was identified in
the schedule used for these orders. If it contains the ampersand character
(&), e.g. AC&HS, it shifts fields within the HL7 message communicated between
the main VistA system and the BCBU workstation, which causes it to populate
the REMOVE TIMING field (#7.4) within the ORDER NUMBER sub-file (#53.701) in
the BCMA BACKUP DATA file (#53.7).
Solution:
--------
Changed the routine PSJHL3 via the PSJ*5*406 patch to escape the schedule
field value before including it in the HL7 message bound to the BCBU
workstation and changed the processing of the incoming message to un-scape
schedule field value before parsing when at the BCBU workstation.

Problem:
-------
The Audie L. Murphy Memorial Veterans' Hospital reported that when they
submitted a missing dose for an inpatient order with 3 or more dispense drugs
associated with it and later scanned the medication received BCMA Med Logs only
had a record of the first and last dispense drug associated with the order.
Some orders require a combination of dispense drugs to achieve the exact dose
ordered. For example: an order of 75MG for Prednisone would require a
combination of 3 20MG tablets, plus 1 10MG table plus 1 5MG tablet. Upon
research it was determined that this issue was introduced by patch PSB*3*99,
issue #3 (I9892810FY16). In addressing that issue the patch accidentally
introduced the issue reported above. This issue is also being considered a
Patient Safety Issue (PSI) and the number assigned by the Patient Safety team
is HITPS-7596.

- DESCRIPTION:
This patch addresses the following issues:
Problem:
--------
The "B" index for fields ADDITIVES or SOLUTIONS is not created when the
IEN of either is 1. The ADDITIVES field points to the IV ADDITIVES file
#52.6 and the SOLUTIONS field points to the IV SOLUTIONS file #52.7. In
routine PSBMD these fields are set to a value of 1 as a placeholder
before the filer routine (FILE^DIE) is called. When the IEN of the field
is also 1 (pointer in file #52.6 or file #52.7) the index does not get
created because the filer routine doesn't detect a change and doesn't set
the index. This issue was found while analyzing another ticket.
Resolution:
-----------
Routine PSBMD is modified to set the value of the placeholder to 0
instead of 1. This ensures that the filer routine will create the "B"
index correctly.

This patch addresses three Remedy tickets, HD68121, HD113034, and HD90393.
the undefined error will not occur. This locking fix was created by the
Minneapolis IRM staff, and has been working in their production area for
months. The fix is being brought back to the VMP group so it can become
part of a national patch release, and other sites can avoid this error in
the future.
The second issue, HD113034, happens when a medication PATCH (such as
Fentanyl) is marked as REMOVED after initially being given to the
patient. If you right-click the mouse on the order in BCMA and mark the
patch as "REMOVED", when you subsequently check the med log, the units
given remains 1. However, if you use the BCMA menu option FILE/EDIT Med
Log and mark it "REMOVED", the units given becomes 0, and the audit trail
shows "Doses given '1' deleted". The correct value for units given is
actually 1 (as right-clicking the mouse shows), because the medication
was indeed given, but the patch was subsequently removed, not deleted or
refused.
The third issue in this patch, HD90393, addresses a printing problem with
the PRN Effectiveness report when it is printed by Ward/Room-Bed. When
this printing filter is applied, the report prints in patient DFN order,
not Ward/Room-Bed order. This fix corrects a problem in the BCMA code so
that when the Ward/Room-bed filter is applied, the report will print
properly.
The first issue, HD68121, is the result of a file locking problem with
the routine PSBMD. This error only appeared after the site converted to
Cache' version 5. There is an undefined variable error created with
Missing Dose reports in Pharmacy, even though a record is created in
^PSB(53.68). By attempting to lock the ^PSB(53.68) file before
attempting to print the report, it will ensure that the file exists so

- DESCRIPTION:
Issues (PSI) and Remedy Ticket resolution and BCMA Coversheet refinement.
8. Enhancement: Enhanced "*UNKNOWN* Action Status" support.
BCMA Medication Log File (File #53.79) entries having unknown
Action Status (field #.09) data can be maintained via the GUI BCMA
Edit Med Log only. These entries may be maintained by persons holding
the BCMA manager's key [PSB MANAGER] or that user unable to complete
the original administration. PSB*3.0*13 supports the VISTA "Unknown
Action Status Report" option [PSBO XA]. The [PSBO XA] option
provides persons holding the BCMA manager's key [PSB MANAGER]
resource to generate a report to display BCMA Medication Log File
(#53.79) entries having "unknown" Action Status (field #.09) data.
***
Users holding the BCMA manager's key [PSB MANAGER] can access the
PSBO XA report via the BCMA GUI as well. BCMA has been enhanced to
display a "pop-up box" when a user begins an action on an order
9. Enhancement: Saved Coversheet Personal Parameters
PSB*3.0*13 will maintain personal parameters per BCMA Coversheet
views to be saved and retrieved when using BCMA.
1. Problem: PSI-05-064
BCMA functionality enables a BCMA user to edit the free text
BCMA MEDICATION LOG FILE-DISPENSE DRUG SUBFILE (# 53.795) "Units
of Administration" (field #.04) for an administered medication, when
using the Edit Medication Log. Consequently, the GUI Edit
Medication Log (Edit Med Log) allows a BCMA user to modify text in
the field labeled "Units" of the "BCMA - Edit Med Log" dialog box.
***
The user is able to change the "Units" from "PATCH" to any other text
value. Changing a "PATCH" medication to some other "Units", causes
BCMA to not process the administration properly; and causes the BCMA
Virtual Due List (VDL) to not present the administration properly.
Corrective Action:
The BCMA GUI Edit Med Log will not allow any BCMA user to edit the
BCMA MEDICATION LOG FILE/DISPENSE DRUG SUBFILE (# 53.795) "Units
of Administration" (field # .04) of an administered "PATCH"
medication.
2. Problem: PSI-05-032
The VDL displays a GIVEN medication patch until it has been marked as
"REMOVED". This is causing some confusion to users.
Corrective Action:
BCMA will provide a site parameter that will specify the number of
days (7-14) a GIVEN patch will display on the VDL. The count of
days the GIVEN patch displays on the VDL begins when the
medication order expires. This parameter may be set to ""
This patch is a component of the Bar Code Medication Administration
(null) to allow GIVEN patches to display on the VDL until it is
marked as REMOVED.
3. Problem: PSI-05-115
The Special Instructions on the VDL will display the entire Special

Special Instructions. However, ff a word or phrase (without spaces)
in the Special Instructions can not be wrapped due to the word or
phrase being longer then the width of the column, the text would be

truncated when the text ran into the right side of the column. In
addition, when the above happens, some of the ending words in the
special instructions may be omitted as well.
Correction Action:
When a word or phrase (without spaces) can not be wrapped and does
not fit in the column width, the text will be truncated with an
ellipsis to indicate that a portion of the word or phrase was
truncated. The occasional omission of ending words in the special
instructions will be corrected.

1. I9592038FY16 - Frequently, BCMA users are not able to access the BCBU
database
Problem:
--------
Frequently, BCMA users are not able to access the BCBU database. This result
in local IT support spending time to resolve what should be a minor issue.
However, the fix is not always simple or straight forward. Typically, the
problem is that the user has had a Verify Code change since they last
accessed a contingency. Normally, doing a User Initialization does not
resolve the issue and IT support has to either replace the database or
manually give the user a new Verify code on the contingency computer.
Resolution:

unnecessary restrictions for sending a user update over to the BCBU

In a multi-divisional BCBU configuration all Divisions are required to have
an HL7 Logical Link associated. When a division is missing the association an
alert is generated for every transaction that is supposed to go to the BCBU
workstation for that division. The problem is that the Alert does not identify
which division is missing the Logical Link, which makes it hard for the users
to identify the source of the problem and resolve it. Furthermore, the fact
that the Alert does not identify which patient was being processed when the
issue happened makes it hard to troubleshoot and fix the problem as well.

BCBU application is automatically invoked if such patient has active inpatient
orders. Many other subscribing applications are automatically invoked by the
same process and they all share the same local variables from the invoking
process. The routine ALPBINP was incorrectly killing HL7 local variables such
as HL, HLA, HLCS, HLCTR and HLFS, which were being used by other applications
and in these two specific incidents reported caused the Income Verification
Match (IVM) and Registration applications to error out.
I16851052FY18 - Undefined: GENACK+10^RGADTP *HL("MID")

Problem:
--------
Milwaukee VAMC reported getting a RPC Broker Timeout error when running the
BCMA Missed Medications Report for one specific ward (9C). The reason they
were getting this error is because Ward 9C has quite a few long term care
patients and the report retrieves information for every single order with
medication that requires removal (e.g., patches) for all patients in that
ward before deciding whether the order should be in the report or not.
Resolution:
-----------
Modified the routine PBUTL at the REMOVES line tag and moved the screening
filters up before the call to D PSJ1^PSBVT. This change will have no impact
whatsoever on the output of the report and it will considerably decrease the

Problem:
--------
It was reported that almost all of the BCBU Contingency Error Alerts that
Divisional sites receive continually are for patients who are not admitted
or are deceased. Furthermore, testing of BCBU data for Clinic Orders reveals
that the patient records for clinics using BCMA are rarely complete causing
the menu options in BCBU to be placed OUT of ORDER to prevent medication
errors during contingency operations.
Resolution:
-----------
It was identified that updates for BCMA Medication Logs for patients that are
no longer inpatient fail to identify the correct division for which the HL7
message should be sent to. A fix was made to retrieve the correct Division
using the Institution in the Medication Log if the patient is no longer
inpatient. In addition, the BCBU Contingeny Error Alerts will no longer be
generated for patients that are deceased.

program could not come up with a valid date/time it went into an infinite
loop which would freeze the BCMA application when the users tried to view the
patient's coversheet.
Resolution:
-----------
The routine PSBCSUTX was modified at line tag NEXTADM+24 to take into account
that the frequency of a schedule does not necessarily produces a whole number
of hours and it will calculate the next administration date/time for such
frequencies.

This patch will resolve the following issue.
--------
An issue was discovered with the Barcode Medication Administration (BCMA)
Missed Medications Report for 'odd' (non-standard) schedule orders, e.g.
Q18H - ONCE EVERY 18 HOURS. When the report is run for a date range that
starts prior to the start date/time of such orders in some cases it will
mistakenly include these orders in the report even if the order does not
have any missing dose for the date range selected for the report.
Resolution:
-----------
The routine PSBOMM was modified at line tag EN1+49 to prevent it from
calculating a dose date/time that is prior to the order start date/time.

--------
An issue was discovered with the Barcode Medication Administration (BCMA)
Backup System (BCBU) after the installation of patch PSB*3*105. After the
patient is discharged or a date of death is entered for him/her the patient
data is not being properly removed from the BCBU workstation. In the case of
discharged patient that are later admitted or have a clinic appointment their
orders from their previous admission are still visible on the BCBU
workstation and are listed on the patient's Medication Administration Reports

-----------
Removed the filter introduced by PSB*3*110 to prevent alerts from being
generated for patient movements if the patient is no longer inpatient. The
INC0962039 - WNY - Vista Not Updating BCBU orders when patients are
reason is because such filter prevented patient discharge events, which are

Technical Resolution:
---------------------
Changed the routine ALPBCBU to remove the filter from the PMOV line tag and
placed a check in the ERRLOG line tag to prevent Alerts for patient movement
events after the patient had already been discharged.

This patch will resolve the following issue.
--------
James A. Haley VA Medical Center reported a problem with the BCMA Missed
Medication Report. They were getting an error whenever they tried to run it
for a patient that had a PATCH medication order and the dispense drug had
been edited using the BCMA GUI. An additional side effect was the fact that
the order no longer showed on the patient's VDL.
Resolution:
-----------
The error happened because the Transdermal Project patch PSB*3*83 assumed the
IEN for the DISPENSE DRUG sub-file (#53.796) in the BCMA MEDICATION LOG file
(#53.79) would always be 1 (one) for a PATCH medication order. Such
assumption turned out to be incorrect because when the user edits the
dispense drug for an order in BCMA the IEN 1 gets deleted and IEN 2 gets
created. If a second edit is performed IEN 2 is then deleted and IEN 3 gets
created and so forth. That's the reason the order would not show up on the
BCMA Patient's VDL and also caused the Missed Medication Report to error out.
Technical Resolution:
---------------------
INC2383720 - Error at REMOVES+23^PSBULTL unable to run report in BCMA

DRUG sub-file (#53.795) instead of assuming the IEN 1 to contain the order
dispense drug. For PATCH medication orders there should only be one dispense
drug.

--------
The South Texas Veterans Health Care Medical Center reported two problems
with the the Initialize a Backup Workstation with BCMA Users [PSB BCBU USER
INIT] option:
1) Users were not able to access the BCBU workstations with their ACCESS/
VERIFY codes after the option above was run. Thei ACCESS/VERIFY codes
should match what they use in the main VistA account. Usually, a re-run
of the option resolves the problem, which is not ideal.
2) If there are two users with similar names (e.g., 'NURSE,USER' and
'NURSE,USER A' existed, the user with the shorter name would not be able
to access the BCBU workstation, even after the second initialization.
Resolution:
-----------
1) The setting of cross-references for the newly created users at the
initialized BCBU workstation was being executed before their ACCESS/
VERIFY codes were saved. To resolve the problem the cross-references
setting was moved to run after the ACCESS/VERIFY codes are saved and it
will address this problem.
2) The problem happened because the user lookup for 'NURSE,USER' would
INC3062938 - BCBU/VISTA
find more than one match, 'NURSE,USER' and 'NURSE,USER A' which would
prevent it from being updated. To resolve this problem the lookup call
to find the user record was changed to perform and EXACT match for the
user name. This way a lookup for 'NURSE,USER' will not find 'NURSE,USER
A' as a possible match.
Technical Resolution:
---------------------
1) Moved the call to IX1^DIK from line FILE+19 to FILE+23 in the ALPBGEN1
routine, which is past the setting of the ACCESS/VERIFY codes.
2) Changed the DIC(0)="LM" to DIC(0)="LMX" at line FILE+9 in the ALPBGEN1
routine, which will force an exact match of the user name.
