Hi - this is a tough request but I thought I'd try it anyway. Ten years ago
when we got Meditech, we created a lot of our own generics and generic
mnemonics.
Over the years, with updates that added the DRUG ID line in the drug
dictionary, I have been eliminating them and replacing them with ones from
Medispan.
I thought I could be smart and when we had an old 5.4 version removed, I had
all the generics in the dictionary
overwirtten and printed a report thinking that the Medispan data would
overwrite out own data. But to my dismay I had things like - clindamycin vaginal
cream entered into all the clindamycin iv drugs. The problem is that there
were some generics created utilizing the mnemonics from the original Medispan
download (the mnemonics were used but the drug attached is not what was
originally attached).
I am looking for a site that uses Medispan that has not too badly
corrupted the original downloaded generic drug dictionary. This would probably
be
a facility
that got Medispan for its database in the last year or two - although there may
be some who haven't tweaked it as badly as we have.
I am looking for a list of the Original mnemonics with the original generic
names that would have been loaded into the generic dictionary.
If you are one of those sites, I would be eternally grateful if I could
possibly have a list of the mnemonics and names from your generic dictionary
(both active and non-active). I have a simple NPR report you can run to get
them all out, if necessary. I have gone to both Medispan and Meditech
and have been unable to make any headway. The generic mnemonic is apparently
not created by Medispan - so they say, and there is no
field or NPR field pointing to that field in PHA.FSV, so I tend to think that
that is probably true, so how theygot there - I do not know.
Thanks!!!!!!!
