If there were no install error during the update process and the update
was successful, all LAB NLT/CPT CODES file entries will be deleted and the
file will only contain one entry, NLT CODE 2000, after the install.
NOTE: Additional workload codes added to the WKLD CODE file are populated
with CPT codes. Before the added codes are linked to LABORATORY TEST
procedures, the CPT coding should be reviewed to ensure it is appropriate
for the laboratory test it is being linked with.
If the CPT code requires changing, use the 'Edit or Print WKLD CODES' [LR
WKLD CODE EDIT PRINT] option. Enter an INACTIVE DATE for the incorrect CPT
code. Then enter the correct CPT code and enter a RELEASE DATE of 'NOW'.

This patch will install a new option 'NLT Mapped Code Search' [LRCAP64S]
This option is designed to assist in management of national codes linked
to WKLD CODE (#64) file entries.

TYPE: run routine CREATOR: STALLING,FRANK
PACKAGE: LAB SERVICE
DESCRIPTION: This option is useful when determining what codes are
linked to what entry in the WKLD CODE (#64) file. Several national coding
schemes (i.e. CPT, LOINC, MORPHOLOGY) can be linked to the WKLD CODE file.

This option will search the entire WKLD CODE file to determine if specific
national codes are linked.
The search can be done for as many codes of the same set as required. The
report will list the national code(s) and any WKLD CODE(s) linked.
This option can be used to assist when a particular national code should
be changed or deleted.

select the 'Installation Menu'. Select the option
Load a distribution.
Select [disk storage location]LR52_258.KID
2. The patch has now been loaded into a Transport global
on your system. You now need to use KIDS to install
the Transport global.
On the KIDS menu, under the 'Installation' menu, use
the following options:
Print Transport Global (Patch size is very large)
entries in the National Laboratory Test files. This patch adds or updates
Compare Transport Global to Current System
Verify Checksums in Transport Global
Backup a Transport Global
3. Users may remain on the system however Laboratory
users must be idle. This to say the laboratory users should
not accessioning, instrument downloads or test verification
during the install. Installation should be done during off
peak hours.
4. No options need to be placed out of service. No
laboratory background jobs have to be stopped.

5. Installation time is less than 15 minutes during off
peak hours and less than 35 minutes during peak hours.
6. Installation of this patch requires minimal additional
disk space. Review your map set for the routine
LRCAPDAR. The routine LRCAPDAR should not be

This patch updates the WKLD CODE (#64) file with additional workload
Laboratory Information Manager (LIM) should review the mail message
containing the workload codes additions to determine if there is a need to
link or re-link laboratory tests. Before linking any workload code the CPT
coding should be reviewed for appropriateness.
codes. These workload codes are sometimes referred to as (NLT) codes. New
entries to the WKLD CODE files should never be added using FileMan Enter
Edit option. Use instead the option 'Add a new WKLD code to File' [LRCAP
CODE ADD].
June 10, 1999
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
CODE (#64) file.
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.
VISTA Laboratory Package patch LR*5.2*258 contains no changes to software
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.
Cross Reference description:

controlled by VHA DIRECTIVE 99-053, titled VISTA BLOOD BANK SOFTWARE.
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
WKLD CODE file, this information is included in a mail message sent to the
