| GENERAL DESCRIPTION |
As part of the pre-CPRS functionality that is released
with OR*2.5*49, an estimate of global growth is given. One of the components
of that growth is the backfilling of outpatient pharmacy prescriptions.
In order to calculate the number of prescriptions that might be backfilled, we
loop through the PHARMACY PATIENT file and then through the "A" x-ref of the
PRESCRIPTION PROFILE multiple (#55.03). We then get the pointer to the
PRESCRIPTION file (from the cross-reference) where we check the status of the
prescription and the existence of a PATIENT file pointer.
This agreement will be retired on 12/1/2006. Please do not add any additional
code that utilizes this Integration Agreement. APIs have been created that
can be used in place of any code needing to make use of this agreement. These
APIs were released with patch PSO*7*213. Documentation information can be
found in the patch description. In addition, any code that currently utilizes
this Integration Agreement must be converted to use the new API's. If any part
of this Integration Agreement cannot be satisfied with the APIs, please
contact the PRE development team mail group at EMAIL GROUP DEV
using Microsoft Outlook.
This DBIA retirement only applies to non-pharmacy packages. Pharmacy packages
are still allowed to utilize this agreement past the expiration date of
December 1, 2006.
