3. 3 PRE Background Many VHA technology problem areas and weaknesses identified
Prior to 2001 First Consulting study
Included patient safety issues
SwRI awarded multi-year, fixed-price contract
FY04 to develop new pharmacy system
Period of performance ends September 2008
4. 4 PRE Proof of Concept Demo December 14, 2006
Purpose: Demonstrate viability of Pharmacy Enterprise Product System (PEPS)
Successfully interoperated VistA pharmacy with COTS database (First DataBank-FDB) Demonstrated integration between
PEPS and COTS
PEPS and VistA
Used reduced set of
PEPS functionality
PEPS test data
Demonstrated integration between
PEPS and COTS
PEPS and VistA
Used reduced set of
PEPS functionality
PEPS test data
5. 5 POC Summary Proof of Concept
Demonstrated key functionality
Identified major risks for production system
Tested VistA - PRE info flow
Validated & refined PEPS system requirements
Provided environment to evaluate VistA integration strategy
Allowed Level of Effort (LOE) estimate adjustment for production build
6. 6 POC Lessons Learned Proof of Concept showed
Level of effort > originally thought
Testing Activities require significant time/ resources
HealtheVet (HeV) architecture not maturing as quickly as hoped
Dramatic funding reductions = significant project delays
Cost estimates to continue current pace w/ SwRI greatly exceed original expectations
7. 7 POC Testing Activities 2006 Testing
Usability
Functional Acceptance Test
Code Evaluation
508 Compliance
8. 8 FY07 - Changing Environment Entire VA Environment changed
New Organizational Structure
Continuing Resolution
No Approved Budget (80% of FY06 Budget)
Unable to move forward with New Contract with SwRI
Generated Re-planning effort

Duplicate Ingredient checking compares ingredients of the drugs
Duplicate Therapy Class checking
uses therapeutic drug classes developed specifically for duplicate therapy selection
identifies drug groups involved and provides a duplicate therapy class name relative to the duplication
87. 87 Drugs assigned to one or more classes
classification category = MOA (e.g. Beta-Adrenergic Receptor Blockers, ACE inhibitors)
classification category = Therapeutic Indication (e.g. Anticonvulsants, Antimalarials)
Each Duplicate Therapy Class is assigned a duplication allowance
Customization
Change duplication allowance for therapy class Duplicate Ingredient & Duplicate Therapy Check – FDB (continued) Each Duplicate Therapy Class is assigned a duplication allowance. The duplication allowance specifies the maximum number of duplicate therapy matches that can occur with a class without creating a warning. Example follows:
Example 1:
Drug: Chloroquine Phosphate
Duplicate Therapy Class: Antimalarials
Duplication Allowance: 0
Number of duplications present? 1
Exceeds Allowance? Yes
For the example above, the duplication allowance is zero. If more than one drug in the Antimalarial class is prescribed, a match occurs and a warning should be generated.
Example 2:
Drug 1: Lovastatin
Drug 2: Atorvastatin
Duplicate Therapy Classes: Antihyperlipidemics; HMG-CoA Reductase Inhibitors
Duplication Allowance: Antihyperlipidemics = 1 ; HMG- CoA Reductase Inhibitors = 0
Number of duplications present: 1 for both
Exceeds allowance: No for Antihyperlipidemics & Yes for HMG – CoA Reductase Inhibitors
In the example above, 2 duplicate therapy matches occurs. For the Antihyperlipidemic match, the warning is suppressed because the duplication allowance for this class is one and therefore allowed. The other match would exceed the allowance of zero and generate a warning message.Each Duplicate Therapy Class is assigned a duplication allowance.

174. 174 New BCMA Functionality Provides a means to quickly identify
Controlled Substances
Drugs that require a witness (2nd signature) and capture the 2nd signature
High-Risk drugs that require follow-up and document the follow-up action
Display Lab and Vital information based on the drug being administered
Create/modify BCMA reports to support this functionality While some of the requirements shown are long standing BCMA requests, the implementation of PEPS allows BCMA to move forward with their implementation in a meaningful way.
An example of this is the display of Labs and Vitals information. As many of you know the PRN dialog boxes in BCMA already display vitals information. But, since there was no way to determine what vital sign should be displayed for a specific drug... BCMA implemented a generic display of the “Big 5”
Now with the implementation of PEPS specific information can be displayed with a specific order based on the relationship of the Lab or Vital to the drug.
