Mattie: Since implementing Meditech in 1992 - it has gone both ways a few times but it has been in IT since 1997. Before that time IT was asked to take it back and spend many, many hours doing clean up, give it back only to get asked once again for clean up duties. So there is pros/cons both ways. IT hasn't been comfortable in changing the responsibility back to PFS due to staff turnovers where the knowledgebase just wasn't there for that responsibility shift. *** Don't get me wrong - there are days when I would love to get rid of my "gatekeeper" responsibility for many dictionaries (not just BAR)!

Subject: [MEDITECH-L] BAR Dictionary Access
We are curious how other hospitals coordinate dictionary
responsibility for BAR between IT and Patient Financial Services.
Currently, IT controls the BAR dictionaries but we believe the
department could be responsible for some of the dictionaries such as
Remittance, Canned Text, Dunning Messages, etc. Does your Patient
Financial Service department assume responsibility for some dictionary
functions or all? What dictionaries do they control? Any input would
be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
