-----Original Message----- From: Trent Sutherland Sent: Wednesday, March 22, 2006 11:32 AM To: Charlotte Robey Subject: list serv question Hi, Does anyone have suggestions on how to solve the following issue between Meditech and Pyxis? Expecting mothers who come to the Family Birthing Center for pre-term issues are registered as same day surgery patients and assigned a room on the unit. When they leave the facility they are then departed in Meditech. If the patient has a visit or several visits immediately prior to the day they are admitted for delivery all these visits appear on the units Pyxis console. I checked with Pyxis and they do not recognize the depart code as a discharge. The nursing staff then has difficulties utilizing the correct visit for the admission transactions and Rxprofile. We do not want them to be recurring accounts because then the physicians do not get the specific outpatient visits on their census. We currently have Pyxis set to auto discharge the OB outpatient unit at 36 hours and inpatient at 744 hours. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Trent Sutherland, PharmD Pharmacy Clinical Supervisor 540-349-5673 pager: 540-428-0920 _______________________________________________ meditech-l mailing list [email protected] http://mtusers.com/mailman/listinfo/meditech-l
