FYI Based on something all of you are saying, and what we have found with our 5.61 Testing, there may be something related here. We were initially delivered 5.61 SR2 code, did some testing for a couple of weeks, never noticed a problem with documentation. Then we were delivered PP5 topoff code, which as I understand it, gave us SR3, SR4, and SR5 changes. Right away we found we are missing half our documentation. If we document any intervention (through status board, process intervention, document now), fill in an entire screen of data, file it, then go into View History, View (the documented occurrence) - nothing is there EXCEPT for queries marked to Demo Recall and queries set with Multiple=Y. Nothing appears in Patient Profile reports that have a historical format either. However, if we VH - Edit (the Documented occurrence), fill in the entire screen again and file it, then VH - View (the Edited occurrence)documentation will be there. If this sounds familiar or can be reproduced by anyone else, my meditech task is NUR 5197132 and was opened on 3/29/07. Meditech has been able to reproduce my situation but has not yet (as of this writing) given any ideas on what the issue may be. Debbie Youville Hospital IS Analyst Helpdesk: ext 3200 Direct: ext 5312

Yesterday they told me that the query responses that have missing information are in the fields that the cursor has been entered through to get to the area that needs edited. We did a little test of this yesterday. We found that if we paged down through a page and did not have the cursor stop on any field, all of the responses remained when the edit printed. If we entered through several query responses, some of them did disappear, but not all. If they print the report through Print Profile all of the query responses are there. So entering through some responses does have something to do with the problem of auto printing when an edit has been made. I just don't understand why it didn't remove all of the responses that the cursor entered through. I have not heard back from Meditech since I sent them these results last evening. Diana L Teeters, RNC Alliance Community Hospital 200 East State Street Alliance, OH 44601 Diana L Teeters, RNC Alliance Community Hospital 200 East State Street Alliance, OH 44601 _____ From: [email protected] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Sailor, Debbie Sent: Thursday, April 12, 2007 8:49 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [MEDITECH-L] Auto print of nursing interventions ex: dischargesummaries, data bases We are Magic 5.61. We have our discharge summaries and admission data bases set on the 2nd page of the intervention dictionary set to auto print once the intervention is filed. We have had issues if the intervention is edited and then prints, in which not all of the info is printing once edited. Meditech says that if the user does a view history (VH) and edits instead of a new documentation (DI) that only the edited results will print. We have always instructed our users not to do a new DI when they are editing what they just documented on, is this correct? The problem ends up being that you have 2 printed forms, one when they originally file the documentation and another if they edit it, and neither end up having the correct info. Is anyone out there having this same issue? Do others have their discharge summaries and data bases print automatically or do the users manually print them? I'd like to hear how others handle printing of these very important documents.
