| DESCRIPTION OF ENHANCEMENTS |
This patch, along with patch PSS*1*243 will address the following ePrescribing
--------------------------------------------
1. INC9317643 - We have noticed a number of drugs that do not auto match for
inbound eRx orders
DUPLICATE - INC9105989 - erx software auto-matched wrong drug product
Problem:
--------
The VA Health Administration Center Denver reported and issue with incoming
ePrescribing orders (eRx) not automatically matching the ordered drug with a
(eRx) issue:
VistA corresponding Dispense Drug, even when the NDC received matches 1 to 1
with a specific VA Product entry. They also noticed the issue to be more
prevalent with dispense drugs that have been recently re-matched to a
different VA Product entry due to changes from MG to MGC in the strength.
After researching this issue it was determined that the root cause of the
problem was a 'corruption' of the "APR" cross-reference in the DRUG file (#50)
which was not properly set or killed after Dispense Drugs were matched,
un-matched or re-matched to VA Product entries. Such cross-reference is used
by the eRx drug auto-matching processing and that's the reason it failed
for some drugs. It turned out that two other cross-references "AND" and "APN"
also had the same issue. No user functionality side-effects have been
reported related to these other two cross-references though.
Resolution:
-----------
The setting and killing of the "APR", "AND" and "APN" cross-reference have
been completely reviewed at every point where a Dispense Drug is matched,
un-matched or re-matched to a VA Product and after this patch is installed
they should be properly maintained. Furthermore, a post-install routine
1. INC9317643 - We have noticed a number of drugs that do not auto match for
will completely kill off the 3 cross-references and re-build them completely.
The patch PSS*1*243 is also being released along with this patch because the
NDF (National Drug File) matching functionality is available in both
applications, NDF and PDM (Pharmacy Data Management).
Technical Resolution:
---------------------
Changed the routines PSNHELP1, PSNMRG, PSNPPSNU and PSNPPSNW to kill and set
the cross-references "AND", "APN" and "APR" properly.
