| DESCRIPTION OF ENHANCEMENTS |
PROBLEM 1:
In the Check Out function of PCE the user is asked to enter an ICD9
code. If the user enters a partial CPT code then the Check Out procedure
will generate a list of codes that match. However, if one of the matching
ICD9 codes has a blank Description field the program will error.
In PCE, while running the CP (CPT Procedure) Protocol, the code does
not check to see if the CPT code is an E&M code in file 357.69 (Type of
Visit). An E&M code may only be placed on an encounter once with the
"Quantity" field only allowing a "1" unless the "Type of Visit" file is
set up to allow more than one. This business rule is, therefore, not
being enforced.
