NAME Contrast Media seeding between OE/RR & Rad/Nuc Med
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Radiology will release a patch, RA*5*45, that will
shift emphasis from AMIS Codes to CPT Codes regarding contrast media
associations. This will lead the user to associate a relevant contrast medium,
when appropriate, to a detailed or series procedure.

The old contrast media data set consisted of the following: Barium, Oral
Cholecystogram, & Unspecified Contrast Media

The new data set consists of the following: Iodinated ionic, Iodinated
non-ionic, Gadolinium, Oral Cholecystographic, Gastrografin, Barium, &
unspecified contrast media.

Patch RA*5*45 will eliminate keystrokes by mapping barium to barium and oral
cholecystogram to oral cholecystographic. To update the new CONTRAST MEDIA
(#125) in the RAD/NUC MED PROCEDURE (#71) file, Rad/Nuc Med will need to look
at Radiology/Nuclear Medicine specific data located on the "RA" node of the
ORDERABLE ITEMS (#101.43) file.

FIELD NUMBER ACCESS FIELD DESCRIPTION FIELD NAME LOCATION
71.1 Direct Global Read & w/Fileman
This field prior to the installation of OR*3*211
indicates what contrast media, if any, is used by this radiologic procedure
where: M = unspecified contrast media C = cholecystogram B = barium

This value may consist of as many of these flags as are appropriate for this
procedure; if empty, no contrast media is assumed.  This field is used
primarily for Order Checking.
CONTRAST MEDIA "RA";1
71.2 Direct Global Read & w/Fileman
This field indicates whether the Orderable Item procedure
is of type: Broad, Detailed, Parent, or Series.

These terms are part of the VistA Radiology/Nuclear Medicine lexicon.
PROCEDURE TYPE "RA";2

This field defines the Imaging Type of the Orderable
Item. Valid choices are: Radiology, CT Scan, Magnetic Resonance Imaging,
Angio/Neuro/Interventional, Cardiology Studies, Nuclear Medicine, Ultrasound,
Vascular Lab, & Mammography
IMAGING TYPE "RA";3
71.4 Direct Global Read & w/Fileman
This field indicates that this procedure is commonly
ordered from Radiology, and is an entry in the Radiology Common Procedures
file; the number stored here is the sequence number for display.
