| DESCRIPTION OF ENHANCEMENTS |
The Pharmacy Prescription Practices (PPP) software relies on patient
visit information provided quarterly by the Minimal Patient Dataset
(MPD) CD-ROM. This CD is no longer distributed to facilities.
To ensure the continuing functionality of PPP, the method of acquiring
patient visit history information must be changed. This enhancement
updates the PPP software to use the Master Patient Index/Patient
Demographics (MPI/PD) package files as the source of data.
The MPI/PD package stores the same information required by PPP in the
TREATING FACILITY LIST (#391.91) file.
