I. Introduction
This patch has enhancements which extend the
capabilities of the Veterans Health Information Systems and Technology
Architecture (VistA )
electronic pharmacy (ePharmacy) billing system.
This patch is being released along with
PSS*1*139 and IB*2*405. These patches
can be installed in any order but the full functionality for Nutritional
Supplement additions contained within these patches will not be available until
all 3 patches are installed.
For Tricare functionality, previously
nationally released patches PSO*7*287, PSX*2*66, IB*2*383, and BPS*1*6
comprised the ePharmacy Tricare dormant
release. Patches PSS*1*139, PSO*7*303,
and IB*2*405 comprise the ePharmacy Tricare active
release.

Tricare
functionality described in this document will become active when IB*2*405 patch
is installed and a Tricare Payer Sheet is subsequently defined for the
site. For sites that do not bill
Tricare, the software will remain dormant.
For sites who bill Tricare prescriptions, the ePharmacy Implementation
Team will notify them when they should activate ePharmacy Tricare billing.
(This page included for two-sided copying.)
Tricare
Functionality:
The software will be activated when a Tricare
payer sheet is linked. See Integrated
Billing documentation for information concerning payer sheet linkage and
contact your billing administrator before activating a Tricare payer sheet.
- Prescriptions where the patient is Tricare eligible will be submitted to ECME for third party insurance processing in the same manner as all other insurance types. Patients with dual eligibility insurance is not addressed with this release of Tricare.
- When a Tricare prescription has a third party rejection, the same reject notification screen will be displayed to the user as is currently done for the Veteran eligibility.
- The Third Party Payer Rejects - Worklist [PSO REJECTS WORKLIST] option and the Third Party Payer Rejects - View/Process [PSO REJECTS VIEW/PROCESS] option has been modified to process and display Tricare third party rejections.
- If ECME's status on the claim remains in an "In Progress" state past the processing time out during finish of the prescription, Tricare prescriptions will not be filled and must be discontinued.
- If the pharmacy is active for ePharmacy processing, but the insurance plan is not linked or not active, Tricare prescriptions will be allowed to be filled normally. The phrase "Inactive ECME Tricare" will be displayed during Finish of the prescription.
Miscellaneous
Functionality Modifications:
This functionality is active for all sites:
- Modifications to change the default answer of (I)gnore on the Reject Processing Screen to (Q)uit, which automatically sends the claim rejection information to the Pharmacy Reject Worklist for these actions: new orders, copies, edits that create new orders, and renewals.
- Software was added to handle the new "N” for Nutritional Supplement DEA special handling code added in patch PSS*1*139. This new "N" code will be treated the same as supply items and investigational drugs in Outpatient Pharmacy.
- For the ePharmacy Medication Profile (VIEW ONLY) [PSO PMP] option, flagged pending orders will be noted on the medication profile screen by highlighting the sequence number shown on the left side of the screen. Note that the "Flagged by..." information shown once the prescription is selected is already present with the PSO*7*225 release.
A. Tricare 3rd party claim submissions
Prescriptions where the patient is Tricare
eligible will be submitted to ECME for third party insurance processing in the
same manner as all other insurance types.
Tricare dual eligibility will not be addressed in this release. Tricare eligibility is determined by Integrated
Billing (IB). An indicator is returned to Outpatient Pharmacy PRESCRIPTION file
(#52) and REFILL multiple (#52.1), to be stored in the new BILLING ELIGIBILITY
INDICATOR field (#85). Because this is a
set of codes field, the internal value will be T, V or C. These values will be displayed
respectively to the user as TRICARE, VETERAN, or CHAMPVA. Note: CHAMPVA submissions will not be addressed in
this patch. Prescriptions with a 'VETERAN'
eligibility flag are currently processed through ECME.
B. Reject notification screen
When ePharmacy is active for the site and
upon finish of a prescription, a third party claim submission is made to
ECME. If the third party payer rejects
the claim, a reject notification screen is displayed to the user for reject
codes of Refill-too-soon (79) and DUR (88).
With this patch, the same reject notification screen will be displayed
for Tricare prescriptions that have a third party claim rejection. Tricare rejections will be stored in the same
manner as DUR (88) and RTS (79)
prescription rejects except for the following:
The following exceptions will apply for
Tricare prescriptions:
- Rejected
Tricare claims will be denoted with “TRICARE” during submission to ECME
phase and within the subsequent reject notification screen. Also, the reject codes will be displayed
in both places. The following
example shows a prescription being submitted to ECME and this process
occurs directly following the “Is this correct? YES//” prompt during
finish:

A person who resolves Tricare non-DUR/RTS
rejects is dependent upon the type of reject.
Dispense As Written(DAW) reject code 22 can be resolved by pharmacy
staff by editing the prescription and entering the appropriate DAW code which
would result in a claims resubmission.
Other insurance related rejects (i.e.
missing eligibility or cardholder ID number) would be resolved by the
Outpatient Pharmacy Electronic Claims Coordinator (OPECC). Once the rejection has been resolved, the Reject
Information screen under the pharmacy reject worklist will show the status of
the prescription as E PAYABLE. At this
point the user may select the FIL action which will prompt for label
print.

For rejects that remain in suspense, the user
will be allowed to process the rejection as indicated above, however no labels
will be printed until the prescription is pulled early or printed from suspense. Upon resolving the reject, the user will be
notified of this information. CMOP
prescriptions will function in the same manner.
D. In Progress 3rd Party Claims
If ECME's status on the claim remains in an
"In Progress" state past the processing timeout during finish of the
prescription, Tricare prescriptions will not be allowed to be filled. Instead it will be placed on suspense until
the rejection is resolved. Below is an
example of this screen:
TRICARE Prescription 101607 submitted to ECME
for claim generation.
Claim Status:

G. Nutritional Supplement
In conjunction with IB*2*405 and PSS*1*139, this patch
PSO*7*303 provides the functionality to treat drugs marked with a DEA Special
Handling Code of “N” for Nutritional Supplement the same as supply items and
investigational drugs. Copay will not be
charged and third party billing for these type drugs will only occur when the
drug is also marked with “E” for Electronically Billable. When the drug is not defined to be electronically
billable, the ECME Log will reflect drug not billable.
