After reading the listing from someone else about the Medispan "issue" I submitted an issue and used the DTS's listed in the email and this is what I got from Meditech today, just thought I'd pass this information on.
Good morning. I wanted to provide you with the latest update on where we are with the issue of incorrect related ingredients associated with Generic drugs in the Generic Name Dictionary: MEDITECH has been able to look at a MEDISPAN suspense file and look at the NDC numbers. It appears as if there are some generic names incorrectly associated with some NDC numbers. (Please know that there are not many and the Generic Name in your Drug Dictionary will not be overwritten so the drugs you currently have in your PHA Drug Dictionary should remain accurate.) I have been in regular contact with MEDISPAN regarding this to determine if these are actually the incorrect generic names or where the problem actually lies. MEDITECH and MEDISPAN are working together to coordinate a conference call for this afternoon to discuss this issue and possible resolutions. I will keep you updated with the outcome of the call and the direction in which we are to head next. Please note that it hasn't been determined that this is a MEDITECH issue that requires any changes. The information on the MEDITECH - L list is not accurate so it is not necessary to provide those changes. This may be an issue where they will need to receive a new set of files from MEDISPAN but we are working with MEDISPAN to determine if this is needed.
