Pharmacy Patches, Taskman Tasks, and Keys 1

Learning Objectives Explain the need to maintain currency of a computer program and to have updates and bug fixes to assure proper function. Discuss a process of applying updates and how to identify patches that affect Pharmacy. Understand computer operating system task processes and explain how to schedule background jobs for pharmacy programs. Describe need for system security and how use of menus assures data safety and integrity. List menu options and keys needed by various staff. Recommend a local menu structure to assist in pharmacy efficiency Describe a mechanism to identify current patch levels Identify pharmacy functions most used by staff pharmacists. 2

Pharmacy Patches Pharmacy patches are updates to installed software. Patches provide new functionality and/or fix program bugs. Software is developed by VA and adapted by OIT to work for RPMS: Most VA software cannot be loaded without modification. Causes a time delay and introduces possibility of bugs. 3

Pharmacy Patches (cont.) RPMS is a “suite of applications” with many packages interdependent with each other Some package patches require patches to other packages The latest EHR patch requires the latest Pharmacy and PCC patches to be installed Pharmacy programmers cannot simply make unilateral changes because they can break something in another package 4

Pharmacy Patches (cont.) Outpatient Pharmacy has an option that can be used to determine the patch level of pharmacy patches: IHS-Specific Pharmacy Option: LPAT Pharmacy Last Patch Lister Pharmacy Related Packages Last Patch Lister Package Version Last Patch Date Installed NATIONAL DRUG FILE /28/2011 IHS PHARMACY MODIFICATIONS ADVERSE REACTION TRACKING PHARMACY POINT OF SALE AUTOMATED DISPENSING INTERFACE /25/2008 IHS SCRIPTPRO INTERFACE /20/2008 BEX AUDIOCARE TELEPHONE REFILL /09/2010 The last EHR installation was EHR*1.1*8 on Last AWP monthly update occurred on 04/05/2011 5

Pharmacy Related TaskMan Jobs Taskman is a MUMPS Kernel function that keeps tasks running. Tasks can be scheduled with Taskman to be run at different times, or to be constantly running. Pharmacy has eight tasks that need to be run periodically to perform housekeeping tasks and keep things running smoothly. These tasks can be started through the pharmacy package (no site manager needed). 7
