I have all those files. I thought I could find the medications in Lexicon. Guess I was wrong. CPT once had a downloadable file from CMS. It looks as though that has changed.
Any idea how long before CPT can be included (patched to existing VistA) and how the transaction can be handled? Hopefully CMS will have some say in this when VistA Office is released. As a member of AMA, I am a bit disappointed. It looks like a lot of unnecessary work for VA just to be accommodating.
