INSTALLATION EXAMPLE:
---------------------
Problem:
--------
With DG*5.3*326, Category C veterans and those Pending Adjudication and
having agreed to pay the deductible, and whose Means Test is more recent
than 10/5/99, will no longer be subject to an annual MT. However, if the
the SUPRESS BULLETIN field of the IBCE MESSAGES SERVER option and fixes
site has the Income Test Reminder Letters option turned on, these now
exempt patients are included in the output. Since they are no longer
subject to MT, their copay status will remain unchanged. As such, they
should no longer be included in those patients due for a reminder.
Resolution:
-----------
This patch corrects the issue by checking the veteran's status and
removing them from the Means Test reminder list if they meet the
criteria mentioned above.
an <UNDEF> error in the IBT SEND TEST UNBILLED MESS option.
2. COA-0403-21056 <UNDEF> MAIN+2^IBTOSUM2 in MCCR/UR SUMMARY REPORT
Problem:
--------
When running the IBT OUTPUT MCCR/UR SUMMARY option for a date range that
contains no Claims Tracking entry that is ACTIVE, INSURED and BILLABLE,
an undefined error would occur. The printing function expected to find
a value in the counter IBCNT(3,0) but if no records were selected
during the search, the counter was never set.
Resolution:
-----------
The counter array variable IBCNT(3,0) is initialized to zero prior
to the record search.
3. SBY-0403-30897 Claims Waiting Austin Acknowledgement
Problem:
--------
When acknowledgment messages or status update messages are received
from Austin, they are delivered to the S.IBCE MESSAGES SERVER
option. Because there is no specific SERVER MAIL GROUP defined for
this option, and the SUPRESS BULLETIN field is NULL (the default is
to send), a message is sent to the default MAIL GROUP defined in the
XQSERVER Bulletin (file 3.6). This is GENERALLY a mail group called
XQSERVER but it may have some other name. If this MAIL GROUP
specified in the XQSERVER Bulletin suddenly has NO active members (for
ASSOCIATED E3R(s):
whatever reason), the incoming messages will be RECEIVED, but the IBCE
MESSAGES SERVER is not served. The server option is listed as a
recipient but server action was not processed due to a security
violation.
Resolution:
-----------
The issue could be resolved on a local basis by making sure that there
is always a member of whichever mail group is specified by the XQSERVER
bulletin. However, to avoid the problem altogether, this patch will
==================
set the SUPRESS BULLETIN field of the S.IBCE MESSAGES SERVER option
to YES. The bulletin only announces that there has been server
activity. It is not necessary for actual distribution of the incoming
reports so suppressing the bulletin will have no detrimental effect.
4. BRX-0403-12417 BULL1+4^IBTUBUL:1, %DSM-E-UNDEF, undefined variable
Problem:
--------
When running the option IBT SEND TEST UNBILLED MESS, a software error
is logged because the TESTV subroutine fails to initialize the
IBUNB("EPISM-A") variable. This problem only occurs for the TEST
messages and not for the real messages.
Resolution:
-----------
The missing variable is initialized so that the TEST message
function can be utilized.
