Good Morning, We go-live in Feb and we are trying to develop a Kardex (via NPR). Does anyone have an example that we could use as a base. We are working on a form with pt name & room number, allergies, code status, diagnosis, doctor, tests/labs ordered for that shift/day, glucometers, diet, and activity. We are also trying to develop work list auto reports (if they order a PT RFS, it goes on a report that prints at 7a and 7p) if anyone has this that we can look at that would be great.

One printout includes a multiple report format from PCS for all PCS documentation and notes. A second printout of the medication administration report is also printed for the permanent record. This represents a large volume of paper, as well as a cumbersome process for the HIM departments. What are other hospitals doing for the discharge chart? Do you print your documentation for the "permanent record", or do you leave all electronic documentation electronic? If you don't print, what do you do about physicians who want to see a paper record in HIM? Would you please describe your process, and who is responsible for the printing? Thanks, Kathy Hazlett, R.N.

We are using the messages system that Meditech 5.5 has, to pass questions back and forth between the radiologist and transcriptionist. Some of our radiologists also do some editing themselves when they are in the e-sign routine. We are NOT using MSWORD but rather Rich Text. This makes the editing process a little faster for the radiologist. Also we have it set up to use Quick Edit which means only the body section of the report is loaded for their editing. (makes it faster still) Some radiologists in our region just send a message back to the transcriptionist to correct the errors and resubmit. If the radiologist fails to correct the errors or answer the messages, and signs the report, then when or if the error is found, it may be necessary to unsign the report, make the corrections and re-submit for signing. Our transcriptionists have the ability to unsign reports which is a ITS toolbox parameter set by Meditech.

While NPI affects all the HIPAA standard transactions, this survey focuses heavily on NPI readiness for claims. Previous surveys indicated the majority of everyone's work effort has focused on claims first. It is extremely important that you complete all the questions so we can obtain an accurate assessment of everyone's NPI readiness. If you are a healthcare entity that engages in multiple categories contained in this survey (Health Plan, Healthcare Provider, and clearinghouse), please answer the survey for each category applicable to your organization.

I have seen someone (Joe C or Brian S or some other smart person) send the L list a footnote or macro to suppress the no records found. I am not sure why suppressing the message hangs the scheduler up? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------- Print "NO RECORDS FOUND" on NPR Report If you want to generate a page when a report doesn't find any records - no records are selected to print on the report, add the following footnote: AL CLOSE.UP IF{'/R.FOUND "NO RECORDS FOUND"}^! A page will print whatever you type inside the quotes. In this example, it will print NO RECORDS FOUND. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------- ANSWER: How to suppress a "No Records Found" Page It is possible to prevent the "No Records Found" page from printing when your report does not find any data that meets your selection. Within the object code in any report, if data passes selection, the number 1 is stored in a report variable /FOUND. If /FOUND is nil, that means no data met your selection criteria. By placing the following line of code in the footnotes tab, it will prevent this page from printing and instead display a Text box indicating that no data was found for your report: AL CLOSE.UP IF{'/R.FOUND 1^/R.FRAGMENT,@W.choice("C",{"&OK"},"FORM NOT PRINTED")} Populating the /R.FRAGMENT variable suppresses the page and the @W.choice macro creates the text display box. Since you are scheduling it, I would leave off the call to the message macro: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------------------------------------------- ANSWER: AL CLOSE.UP IF{/R.FOUND;1^/R.FOUND^/R.PAGE.NUM,@Z.spool 1^/ZMAIL^/R.HALTED} If the report finds records, then /R.FOUND will be set up, so there is no action to take. Otherwise, /R.FOUND and /R.PAGE.NUM will be set up which will fool the system into thinking that records were in fact found and the "No Records Found" message will NOT print. Also, if the report is being spooled, then there will be a value for @Z.spool. In this case, we assign a 1 to the global variable /ZMAIL which will prevent the spool file from being placed on the index called MIS.SPOOL.spool.group.priority.index. This index is used by the Meditech background job to print spool files. If the spool file is NOT on this index, then it will NOT print. Also, we assign 1 to /R.HALTED which fools the system into thinking the report was HALTED (as if an end-user pressed <Esc> or <F11>) so the system will NOT bother sending the file anywhere via MOX. I think that should work out for you. The Spool file is still created but will NOT print and it should still purge as it normally would. I am sure there are other options out there that will work by manipulating other Meditech "slash" variables. Brian Schmit [EMAIL PROTECTED] QUESTION: I have an NPR report scheduled to run in MIS and managed to a remote printer. My NPR report contains the footnote "AL CLOSE.UP IF{'/R.FOUND 1^/R.FOUND^/R.PAGE.NUM}" to suppress the output of the "No records found". My problem is that I still get a blank page printing out on my printer when my report finds no records. Anyone have any ideas how I can suppress the blank page from printing? I'm told by Meditech I get a blank page since a spool file is created for the scheduled report when the schedule starts and there is nothing I can do to prevent the creation of this file. If I view the spool file in MIS, I get a message "Could not load page 1. Status: CREATED # pages:". If I print this spool file, I get a blank page. If I print this spool file to a file, I get a 0kb file created, but still get a file non-the-less. If I run the report directly to a printer, I get a blank page if I leave the footnote on the report. If I remove the footnote and run the report directly to a printer, I do not get a blank page, but get the on-screen message "No records found" instead. The solution I'm creating requires that no output be received by the remote printer. The problem goes beyond the annoyance of blank page. I'm trying to create an on-screen alarm on remote workstations when certain events are found by my report. To avoid the alarm when no records are found, I must avoid all output from Meditech to the remote printer. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------------------------------------------------------------- Good Luck, ________________________________ From: Carpenter, Michael--IRM [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, January 08, 2007 3:15 PM To: Bill Mullins; Pierson, Jeff; [email protected] Cc: Steve Pruter; Kevin Goecke; Warren Matiko; Karen Ham; Doug Davison Subject: RE: [MEDITECH-L] Hold Acknowledgement Notification in PHA Hi all, to schedule this report is great but has anyone figured out a way not to hose up the scheduler if you attempt to suppress the "No records found" message from printing..

We are being told to schedule a report (what report?) to print every so often, but I am skeptical about this. Can anyone who successfully uses this process give me some specifics that I can take to I.S.? We certainly want to utilize this functionality and decrease telephone calls and forms, but our pharmacists are constantly super busy with a backlog of orders and tend not to deal with reports until caught up (i.e. never). We are very label driven though. Has anyone come up with a way to get the Hold Acknowledgement to print on a thermal label? Thanks for any contributions.

She is suppose to give 1.5 tabs or pills, we had to erase the 10mg we scanned and enter 7.5mg to proceed. This is just an example, I am sure there will be other situations where the caregiver may need to adjust the dose, but maybe you will handle this by simply messaging PHA to edit the order before you give it?

My thought is to not let the eMAR user "change the dose" (via parameter setting)...that should then limit these issues to just zero dose entries. Thoughts? Kevin McConnell, PharmD.

What I'm trying to do is catch and avoid gross charge errors from passing to B/AR that are result of gross documentation errors on the eMAR in an Admin Billing environment. I attempted a TXN rule that evaluates txn.items and if it exceeds a specific amount, set the charge type to one I named "Error". I then created a Charge Formula to attach to this Charge Type that I had hoped would override the charge and send a $0.00 transaction to B/AR. My first attempt failed. Don't know if this is even possible or if I coded my rule wrong or set up my Chg Formula wrong. Any ideas will be appreciated!
