Session: 1053 Presenters: Jennifer Miller Organization: SISU Healthcare IT Solutions, Duluth, Minnesota
Scheduled: Thursday May 29 at 9:00 am
Abstract: Using MEDITECH acute and ambulatory products (previously known as LSS) from “cradle to grave” as advertised takes a lot of in-depth knowledge. Whether you are entering RXM medications from EDM, EMR, PWM or PCM, the screens work differently and have unique errors and concerns. Yet your patients and providers need all that information to integrate smoothly, especially to meet meaningful use thresholds. SISU shares the challenges and solutions they’ve addressed in getting hospital and clinic medications in RXM to integrate. We share which approaches work best if you’ve had RXM for years and need to clean up, or are implementing from scratch. We include tips on how the new 5.66 functionality such as common medication lookups, the new continue from ambulatory screen, and the discharge routine impact RXM drug usage and troubleshooting.
EDUCATIONAL PRESENTATIONS
5.66 CS RXM Integrated Acute and Ambulatory Medications
Jen Miller has been with SISU since 2010 and has over 11 years of healthcare and IT experience. Jen is a MEDITECH acute and ambulatory clinical analyst at SISU. She focuses on implementing and supporting the ambulatory modules: MPM, APR/EAR, PWM, AOM, and acute modules: EMR/PCI/EPS, PCM, PDoc, POM, OE, and RXM. She has extensive experience integrating these modules with PHA, LAB, ITS/RAD, and BAR modules. She is the lead 6.0 subject matter expert for OM to prepare SISU for the future. She is the lead RXM analyst helping clean up and maintain RXM for e-prescribing, CPOE, discharge, and meaningful use projects. Prior to joining SISU, Jen was a clinic manager and worked for LSS Data Systems as a project manager of clinical products. She has supported, implemented, and trained sites using MEDITECH, LSS Data Systems, Centricity, Allscripts, NextGen, eClinicalWorks, and Epic software. She is NextGen certified. She has her masters in training and development from the University of St Thomas. Learning Outcomes: • An understanding of exactly where within MEDITECH acute and ambulatory RXM is being used • An understanding of how this setup directly impacts meaningful use objectives for acute and ambulatory • At least 1 “don’t do this or it will result in this problem” take away on RXM drug and access build Post-Lecture questions: • What will happen if I leave a drug in RXM as “Link to FSV = N”? • What will happen if I leave days on drug strings for RXM? • How do I create my own drug but also have it linked to the FSV?
Can You Recover Your Data? MEDITECH Best Practices for Backup and Disaster Recovery Session: 1054 Scheduled: Wednesday May 28 at 1:30 pm Presenters: Frank Tollefson and Chris Welch Organization: Inland Northwest Health Services (INHS), Spokane, Washington; BridgeHead Software Abstract: With several data loss events in recent history and the increasing reliance on MEDITECH systems within hospitals, we feel data protection is of increasing importance. We will share the current best practices for a robust and mature MEDITECH backup and disaster recovery solution based on INHS’ past 20 years of operating a large multi-hospital MEDITECH system. The speakers will share what INHS is currently doing to provide a high level of protection for their systems and also discuss similar strategies and approaches to providing a highly available and recoverable environment with up times measured in years rather than weeks or months. Frank Tollefson, Manager Server Systems, has worked for more than 10 years at INHS. He manages a team of 11 Engineers. Frank earned an AAS in Electronics Engineering, and has numerous industry certifications: VMware VCA-CLOUD, VCA-WM, VCA-DCV, VCP5-DCV and VCP41 - Microsoft MCSE and MCP.
