Ben,
I apologize for not mentioning the good work with CIS done. I guess
I was thinking that I couldn't use your mods because they are not
Delphi. But they are still good!

Re: Astronaut version of server - all patches

None currently.
No.
This is still Beta software. Nearly all the parts, programs, and
procedures necessary for an automated or semi-automated patching
system exist and have been tested but have not been fully engaged
until the product reaches 1.0. This will probably occur soon. It is
likely that 0.X releases will need to be upgraded in a non-automated

Astronaut version of server - all patches

indra.awas...@gmail.com (VistaVIS) — Thu, 07 Jan 2010 23:56:49 UT

Some questions from a newbie:
I have installed astronaut-wv-server-beta-0.9-3 .deb as the worldvista
Server.
How can I find out
- If this version had all the patches embedded at the time of
installation? Or do I need to install the patches separately?
- if any new patches are coming out after this? Is there any master

Matt, I would look and see if there is an error in the error trap. If
not, then I would get on the server and run the report manually. You
should be able to set up the call by looking at the RPC. Many years
ago there were problems with Health Summary (I think) were sites had
set up reports that go back 15-20 years and it of course would take a

The Astronaut VistA Installer is an attempt to be a 'best of'
aggregate of an untold number of ideas, research, and practice many of
which are documented in the Contributors section of the README. I am
open to and carefully consider each question, comment, suggestion and
improvement request received on Astronaut. Like most people in the

You're right that the reminder will not appear in the notifications
section of the patient selection screen. As Isaid, none of the stock
solutions are very good. If you're willing to write code, you can
accomplish what you want. You might be able to make use of this
assuming WV has it (again, I haven't checked) and you create a team

This is an excellent breakout session for VCM.
I would urge us to be mindful of the other client software that is
dependent on the TIU package. Group Notes for instance. OpenVista
CIS. As well as the RPMS/EHR system. Ideally modifications we
consider should be compatible in terms of the note content itself

Allergies - Sulfa Drugs

rcritese...@gmail.com (Robert) — Thu, 07 Jan 2010 20:44:56 UT

I have noticed the generic entry in the GMR ALLERGIES file for Sulfa
Drugs. And from the documentation, this was created as a generic
entry on purpose. There are no VA Drug Classes or Drug Ingredients
listed under it. From my understanding, this entry can encompass many
different meds. However, when the allergy is given to a patient and

(begin soapbox)
Butch's and Joseph's comments are accurate. A blank version of any
VistA flavor is not good enough for providers to use in commercial
production. In this conversation, there must be a distinction between
IT installation, IT configuration and VistA clinical configuration.
Ignacio's installer simplifies installation, but the savvy installer

We will add that to the agenda. Also so think of QA as part of that

I have documented the "Patient Recall Order" which is designed to
create an alert in the future. The alert can go to the originator, a
team, or a designed person, depending on how the outpatient expiring
orders flag is set. There is also a file on Hardhats I posted as well.
It may be just what you are looking for. Try searching hardhats for

Now I get to show my ignorance:
We have a UDS report (required by all FQHCs) that works fine when
reported by quarter, but hangs when we try to run it for a complete
year. The report is GUI-based, so I have no control over setting the
ZU routine variable. Could this be the reason that report hangs also?

It would be really great to get together formally or informally at the
VCM to discuss how to move these ideas from a wish list to reality. I
also have some ideas I'd like to discuss. Maybe we could find
programmers and funding there...
