I believe it is Health Maintenance and Disease Management. It is functionality in the MPM suite. We are planning to implement soon.

HTML will be converted to attachments. The meditech-l web site is MTUsers.com ====================================== Marjorie, Thanks for the nice reply. We are ordering/resulting labs successfully. We order in-clinic labs and we order labs that are to be processed by our hospital lab. We also result our in-clinic labs directly into the lab module so that the in-clinic labs are available in the EMR side by side with all other labs for providers to see in the ED or inpatient areas. We are currently not using Health Maintenance yet. We have LSS looking into a mass load of the HM/DM items by dx. Apparently this was original functionality that was scrapped, we certainly don't want our nurses to have to pull in the HM/DM items manually on each patient so we are holding off to see what LSS will do for us with an auto-load. Encounter Content screens--we call Templates--we have been using these from the time of our first go live in March of 2005. When we started out we did not have any standard screens available to us so we have many, many custom screens that we put together ourselves. We do interface with the Rad and Lab via AOM to OE to CWS. We have had the CWS to OE link going since December of 2002. When we brought up the MPM suite, we added the AOM factor to it. This seems to be working pretty well for us. We have been using the pending appointments for about a month now and that seems to be working well for our schedulers as well. The drug dictionary has been an area of great frustration and lots of work. We have stopped taking the new drugs from the update loads from First Data Bank. If we need a drug, we get it out of the PHA suspense file and pull it into the drug dictionary. We have the problem of drugs that duplicate many times when we take an update. So I'm not sure that I can really give a lot of advice on the drug dictionary, other than take a deep breath and don't let it get to you. Our providers do like the fact that they are able to have a complete drug list for their patients. The problem we hear about is that there are too many interaction checkings. This happens most frequently when a nurse has put in an allergy to all of the components of a combo drug instead of the particular ingredient the patient is allergic to. PS...sorry I hadn't gotten back to your site, we are still implementing clinics and my time is extremely limited. We just finished our 14th out of 16 clinics. Tricia K.

HTML will be converted to attachments. The meditech-l web site is MTUsers.com ====================================== Tricia, It is great to hear that you have had a successful implementation! That is what we all want. You are one of LSS's role model implementations. Your posting was not the first we've heard of the successes at Citizen Memorial. These are the stories we want to hear from the MPM User community, and we want to be included! We have tried all of your suggestions and approaches. Our Systems Analyst, Laura Smolarek has been in contact with you in the past and had inquired whether you had lab ordering live. She didn't hear back from you. Can you please confirm that you are using lab ordering successfully? That is something I think we all would be interested in hearing. Please let us know where you are at with everything like Medical Necessity, Encounter Content Screens, LAB & RAD ordering with your interface with the hospital pieces, and your formulary process including what your drug dictionary maintenance & upkeep were and are your physicians happy with the medication tracking, etc. Any type of information you may be able to provide to us would be greatly appreciated! I have been in touch with Brian, but they only used the billing programs, not the MPM suite. Marjorie Tell Vice President of Information Technology Riverview Hospital Association P.O.
