are sent to CMOP. However, since the ECME submission ran before midnight,
those Rx's would not have been sent. This modification will re-check the
Rx's in suspense for the new date after the CMOP transmission completes
in order to pick up Rx's that need to be sent to ECME after midnight.
2. New functionality was added to prevent prescriptions from being
filled/sent to CMOP when a host processing error occurs when a claim is
submitted through ECME. The host processing errors are identified by
reject codes M6, M8, NN, and 99. The following conditions apply when this
scenario occurs.
a. The transmission of the Rx/fill will be delayed 1 day in hopes
that the host processing issues will be resolved.
b. An activity log entry will be defined to state the date/time
along with a comment stating that the Rx/fill was left in suspense hold
due to a host processing error.
c. This added functionality does not include the Pull Early from
Suspense function.
3. New functionality was added to the Print from Suspense File [PSO
APPLICATION/VERSION PATCH
PNDLBL] option to prevent prescriptions from being pulled early from
suspense until 3/4 of the days supply of the Rx/fill has elapsed.
4. The 'CMOP/ECME Activity Report' [BPS RPT CMOP/ECME ACTIVITY] has
been modified.
a. The CMOP-STATUS column will display 'D' for Dispense or 'T' for
Transmit instead of partially spelling out the status.
b. A prompt will be added to select detailed or summary
information. Detailed information will reflect what is currently
displayed. Summary information will shorten the batch header section of
--------------------------------------------------------------
the report.
c. A prompt will be added to select a list of patients (or ^ALL).
Only patients on the list will be included in the detail.
d. The division prompt will be modified to be consistent with other
ECME options, i.e., the selection prompt will show 'A ALL DIVISIONS'
first, 'S SELECT DIVISIONS' second, and will roll into particular
divisions if the user selects an 'S'.
e. A prompt will be added to select released, unreleased, or all
prescriptions.
f. Detailed reports will only display information from batches that
