Hi Debbie,
I'm in the middle of testing 5.6. For missing documentation that's printed in a 
historical format, ask for DTS 8385. I would say that it was partially 
corrected. I am still having issues on  some of the CDS, it didn't print the 
query responses while some did (on a 24 hour period). I am still waiting for 
MEDITECH's response.

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,
 
We have had the same issue and I have been trying to Meditech to fix it for 
several months. 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.

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.
