Processing Overview
 
 
 
The AutoFinish process starts by a call in ORWDX after a medication orders has had a provider sign with a valid e-signature and the prescription exists in file 52.41. The call in ORWDX goes to PSOZHUIF
 
 
 
  This is found at SEND+19^ORWDX (or line 171 from top of file) in new
 
  ORWDX file.
 
 
 
which determines the status of the AUTOFINISH RX field of the associated OUTPATIENT SITE, if “YES” the AutoFinish and printing process will be executed.  The user AUTOFINISH,RX must also be able to be identified in the NEW PERSON(File#200) in order to initiate the AutoFinishing functionality.  If these conditions are not satisfied the normal provider signing functionality continues without AutoFinishing (i.e., the CPRS prescription will be left in a signed, ‘pending’ status).  If these conditions are met and AutoFinishing takes place, the CPRS prescription will be left in signed; ‘active’ status and a hard copy patient prescription will be printed.
 
 
 
  PSOZHUIF sets up an environement, then calls D ^PSOORFIN
 
 
 
PSOZHUIF will set the variable HUIFIN equal to “Y” if the medication order is to be AutoFinished, the modified routines have lines that begin with either, I $G(HUIFIN)="Y" or “I $G(HUIFIN)’="Y". If the line in the routine begins with I $G(HUIFIN)’="Y" and AutoFinishing is turned OFF  the routines will work and behave with the original functionality. If the line in the routine begins with I $G(HUIFIN)’="Y" and AutoFinishing is turned ON the routines will not execute this line of code.  If the line in the routine begins with I $G(HUIFIN)="Y" and AutoFinishing is turned ON and the routines will AutoFinish and print the prescription. These lines either automate the points in the finishing process where normally a pharmacist will respond to prompts or if the line of the code is to display prompts to the screen the line removes the display function.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
PSOZLSET is a modified version of PSOLSET that sets up the normal variables that are needed in the PSO* routines. It removes all prompts for data input and provides the appropriate values to the routine.
 
 
 
It is important to NOTE that one part of the code that is bypassed in the AutoFinish process is all the interacting checking, allergy checking, drug duplication checking, laboratory prompts and other checks that a pharmacist normally process in the manual finish process. All of the checks processed in the CPRS medication order process are still processed by the provider entering the order.
 
 
 
Comments can be found throughout all the routines describing functionality and variables. Lines changed in the routines by this patch are ended with the comment “;vfa*” where * is a single letter.
 
 
 
When the AUTOFINISHING functionality is turned on existing Class I audit trails are preserved.  In addition the Class 1 “Method of Pickup” field will be populated with the phrase “AutoFinished for Rx Printing”.  The Class 1 “Finished by” or “Finishing Person” field will be populated with the user name “AUTOFINISH, RX” AND the prescription label log will populate the Class 1 “Printed by” field with the user name “AUTOFINISH, RX”.  The date/time stamp for label printing can be found by using FileMan to look at the label log for a prescription in PRESCRIPTION(File #52).
 
 
 
Patients who are processed with the AutoFinish process must have a STATUS assigned to them, if they do not the code can not process the medications orders. The AutoFinish Rx routines check to see if a patient has a status assigned to them, if no status exists the routine will print a message to the printer and not AutoFinish the medication order. See below for an example of the message printed.

1. File 50.7 (PHARMACY ORDERABLE ITEM):

 **A Record in this file should be created first.  
 .01 field should be the generic name of the drug.
 When the Record is created, an entry in fle 101.43 (ORDERABLE ITEM) will automatically be made.
 Also, a Record in in ORDER QUICK VIEW will also be created (but it is incomplete--see below.)
 Note: new drugs may not be added unless PSEDITNM>0.  So to setup a drug in fileman,
       set PSEDITNM=1 from the command-line, then DO D^DI to get into Fileman with vars intact.
 In the MED ROUTE field, the input transform does not allow an input of "ORAL".  (If left
 blank ORAL will be shown in CPRS)
 This file can hold the synonyms of a drug etc.
 When this Record is created, for some reason it is automatically given the current
   date in the INACTIVE DATE field--meaning it is created in an inactive state.  One must
   go back and edit the Record a second time to remove the entry from this field.
 File 101.43 (ORDERABLE ITEM), field ID holds a text pointer to this file, e.g. 
 "10;99PSP" <---- 10 is IEN in file #50.7
 There is no pointer field from file 50.7 up to file 50.  The link is FROM file #50 
 TO #50.7 (via file #50's field 2.1(PHARMACY ORDERABLE ITEM)).  HOWEVER, File #50's 
 "ASP" cross-reference for the field "PHARMACY ORDERABLE ITEM (#2.1) i.e. 
 ^PSDRUG("ASP",IEN_in_50.7,*), contains list of linked Records in file #50


2. In file# 50 (DRUG, ^PSDRUG):

 This file will hold a separate Record for every different medication/tablet size.
 For example, there will be one for AMOXICILLIN 250, and another for AMOXICILLIN 500.
 Both of the above Records would be linked to one Record in the PHARMACY ORDERABLE ITEM,
 i.e. an AMOXICILLIN Record.
 The link should be in field 2.1 (the PHARMACY ORDERABLE ITEM field), which will
   hold a pointer to file 50.7 (PHARMACY ORDERABLE ITEM file)
 

3. In file 101.43 (ORDERABLE ITEM) an entry for the drug must exist like this:

  This entry should have been made automatically when the PHARMACY ORDERABLE ITEM was
  created.
 
 file 101.43
 Record: .01 NAME = LISINOPRIL
           2 ID = "Unique identifier, created from primary key passed in the 
                  Orderable Items update message from each package; it will be 
                  in the form of 'package code;99XXX' where XXX indicates the 
                  package table originating this item (i.e. RAP,LRT,etc.)
                  [e.g. in my system, then entry for DILTIAZEM TAB is 1;99PSP]
                  "Package code" should be the IEN on the PHARMACY ORDERABLE ITEM (#50.7)

4. 101.44 (ORDER QUICK VIEW) For meds to show up in the dialog box in CPRS, it must have a entry like this:

 Again, this entry should have been created automatically when the PHARMACY ORDERABLE ITEM
 was created.  But for some reason, the DISPLAY TEXT field is not filled in.  Without this,
 the drug will not appear in CPRS.  So this must be manually supplied.
file: 101.44 (ORDER QUICK VIEW);  
 Record: ORWDSET O RX;  
   subfile: SET MEMBER (101.442)
     Record: SET MEMBER: _IEN_ pointer to 101.43 (ORDERABLE ITEM)   ... a drug would go here
             DISPLAY TEXT: "A name to appear in CPRS appears here.
     Record: SET MEMBER: _IEN_ pointer to 101.43 (ORDERABLE ITEM)   ... a drug would go here
             DISPLAY TEXT: "A name to appear in CPRS appears here.
     Record: SET MEMBER: _IEN_ pointer to 101.43 (ORDERABLE ITEM)   ... a drug would go here
             DISPLAY TEXT: "A name to appear in CPRS appears here.
     Record: SET MEMBER: _IEN_ pointer to 101.43 (ORDERABLE ITEM)   ... a drug would go here
             DISPLAY TEXT: "A name to appear in CPRS appears here.

Completion of [[CPRS~|CPRS] drug orders

The menu option for completing a medication order entered in CPRS is PSO LMOE FINISH

This menu option causes execution of code: DO ^PSOORFIN The code for PSOORFIN.m in my VOE folder has a copyright GNU GPL WorldVista. This is different from the one in my older server setup.

File 52.41 holds PENDING OUTPATIENT ORDERS And after the order is "finished" via the above order, it is removed from this file.


older stuff below------------

This is a debug trace. First, I entered a drug in CPRS, but didn't sign it....

CPRS gets name of drug order (unsigned) via

ORWORR GETTXT
Params:  "239;1"
Results:
 PENICILLIN TAB 250MG
 TAKE ONE TABLET BY MOUTH TWICE A DAY
 Quantity: 20 Refills: 0 *UNSIGNED*

Above, 239;1 is the link to the drug order.  It comes from: 

ORWORR AGET
Params:   "70774", "2^0", "1", "0", "0", ""
Results -----------------------------------------------------------------
 10^2^
 239;1^4^3080202.1616^^    <----- the drug order
 229;1^43^3080201.1208^^
 ...

I then signed the order in CPRS.  It is now displayed on the medications tab.  Here is the RPC that got that:
ORWPS ACTIVE
Params "70774"
Results 
 ~OP^44P;O^PENICILLIN TAB 250 MG^^^^^^239^PENDING^^^20^^0
  PENICILLIN TAB 250 MG  Qty: 20
 \ Sig: TAKE ONE TABLET BY MOUTH TWICE A DAY


After a drug is entered in CPRS, it is put into:
 file 52.41 - PENDING OUTPATIENT ORDERS

Now, to complete the prescription, must go to Terminal mode.

menu options:

 PSO MANAGER --> PSO RX --> PSO LM BACKDOOR ORDERS

From there I am taken into a screenman form where I can view and update the patient information. I press ENTER twice, and then I am shown the prescription that is pending (i.e. signed in CPRS).

I am able to edit the prescription. And then I enter FN to finish the prescription.

From there I am prompted:
Select New Rx # for TEST,KEVIN: ??

    ENTER A VALID PRESCRIPTION NUMBER
    OR BARCODE PRESCRIPTION NUMBER
    OR 'P' TO GET A PATIENT PROFILE
         (works only if in the OUTPATIENT package)

This is the prescription number.

Select New Rx # for TEST,KEVIN:

Initially I had a problem, but then got this working, after fixing a bug in my version of the PSO code. I kept getting a crash at ACP+6^PSOORNEW when I would enter a prescription number. I stepped through it and found that PSONEW("QFLG") was not being set, which then caused a "variable-doesn't-exist" error. I wrapped this in a $G() and the code was able to continue and complete the prescription. ... Another problem was that I didn't have the setting correct regarding automatically numbering prescriptions. I needed to set that to "YES", and then give an upper and lower range and a last-prescribed value into a fields 27000...

Tracing through the code, I find the following stack (order of execution) (earliest calls on the bottom) when I break at the first Prompt after launching a FN finish.

 EN^PSON52        <-- create new entry in prescription file
 ACP+10^PSOORNEW  <-- Module: display orders from oerr 
 LOOP+6^XQOR1     <-- Kernel Unwinder code
 STAK+3^XQOR1     <-- Kernel Unwinder code
 ASK+1^VALM       <-- ListMan code
 EN+8^VALM        <-- ListMan code
 EN+1^PSOLMPO     <-- starts ListMan session to allow FN to be chosen
 PST+42^PSOORFI1  <-- shows order 
 ORD+14^PSOORFIN  <-- Module: finish CPRS orders
 OK^PSOORNE5
 NEWSEL+2^PSOORNE2
 NEWSEL+1^PSOORNE2
 NEWSEL+1^PSOLMUTL
 ...

My goal was to see if I could create an API out of this process, so that the launching of completion of the FN could be done programatically.

I did find that EN^PSON52(PSOX) seems to be a key entry point. It is called from ACP^PSOORNEW

Starting in ACP^PSOORNEW, I found that PSONEW is modified. Then it is passed as PSOX into EN^PSON52. So the question is, what is setup prior to this call?

PSODRUG seems to contain the info for the drug that has been prescribed.

 PSODRUG("CLN")=269
 PSODRUG("COST")=""
 PSODRUG("DEA")=""
 PSODRUG("EXPIRATION DATE")=""
 PSODRUG("OIN")="A-HYDROCORT INJ"
 PSODRUG("SIG")="USE AS DIRECTED"
 PSODRUG("UNIT")=""

PSONEW contains other info

 PSONEW("CLINIC")=6
 PSONEW("DAYS SUPPLY")=30

 PSONEW("MAIL/WINDOW")="W"
 PSONEW("NOUN",1)=""

 PSONEW("PROVIDER")=73
 PSONEW("PROVIDER NAME")="TOPPENBERG,KEVIN S"

 PSONEW("REMARKS")=""
 PSONEW("ROUTE",1)=1
 PSONEW("SCHEDULE",1)="BID"
 PSONEW("UNITS",1)=1391
 PSONEW("VERB",1)="TAKE"

By the end of ACP, PSONEW has had the following fields added:

PSONEW("NEWCOPAY")=0
PSONEW("OLD LAST RX#",8)=22
PSONEW("POE")=1
PSONEW("RX #")=23

After passed as PSORX into EN^PSON52, the values are as below. Notice that drug name is still missing, so I think that PSODRUG is also still required.

 PSOX("# OF REFILLS")=0
 PSOX("CHCS NUMBER")=""
 PSOX("CLERK CODE")=73
 PSOX("CLINIC")=6
 PSOX("DAYS SUPPLY")=30
 PSOX("DFLG")=0
 PSOX("DOSE",1)="5;30;100"

 PSOX("PATIENT STATUS")=20

 PSOX("QFLG")=0
 PSOX("QTY")=5
 PSOX("REMARKS")=""
 PSOX("ROUTE",1)=1
 PSOX("RX #")=23
 PSOX("SCHEDULE",1)="NOW"
 PSOX("UNITS",1)=967
 PSOX("VERB",1)="TAKE"

After creating the new entry, the pending entry is deleted here

 DCORD+1^PSONEW2

So the next question is, how can I populate PSONEW given an IEN in the pending orders file?



After the drug is completed in the Terminal, it is removed from File 52.41 holds PENDING OUTPATIENT ORDERS.

However, from CPRS, it is still the same RPC call [ORWPS ACTIVE] that gets the list of active medications--both those Pending (await terminal-mode completion, meaning that they are in the PENDING OUTPATIENT ORDERS) and those that are completed.
