Hello,
I was just wondering if anyone knows of a way to programmatically tell when a user clicks on the imbedded "Medications" and "+ Medication" buttons on the GE Update window.
One of my providers asked if it would be possible to automatically populate the "Meds Review" obsterm if one of those buttons at the top of the window is clicked during the encounter.
Thanks.

Hi
Our nurses are responsible for hitting the Verified Meds button during intake in the
Prob-Meds-Allergies-CCC form. This uses the Meds Review obs once clicked.

Not sure if this is what you are asking for but we have an Allergies-Meds form that has the following MEL coding:
{
!IF (size(MED_LIST_CHANGES()) > 3)THEN
OBSNOW("MEDS REVIEW","Done")
ENDIF
!IF (size(ALL_LIST_CHANGES()) > 3)THEN
OBSNOW("ALLERGY REV","Done")
ENDIF
!IF((OBSANY("NKMED"))=="T")THEN
OBSNOW("MEDS REVIEW","Done")
ENDIF
!IF((OBSNOW("NKA"))=="T")THEN
OBSNOW("ALLERGY REV","Done")
ENDIF
}
There are check boxes on the form for "This patient takes no know medications (NKMED)." and "Medication list reviewed during this update." For Allergies, the check boxes are "This patient has no know allergies or adverse reactions." and "Allergy and adverse reaction list reviewed during this update."
If the user goes in and either adds an allergy or medication or changes the meds, the check boxes will automatically be checked that they were reviewed during the update and the obsterms will recorded appropriately.

There isn't anything, such as an audit event, that captures clicking on the Medication or Add Medication buttons. CEMR actually has to checkboxes on the Medical dialog to indicate Review or NKMED. CPS doesn't have this functionality for some reason. The help indicates it should have this functionality available on the chart summary Medications pane.

Our nurses are also responsible for verifying meds with the patients. I set up a quicktext called .med that nurses enter once they've reviewed meds with the patient. It lists the Current Meds in the note as well as Updates the MEDS REVIEW obs term.
Medication Review: {obsnow("MEDS REVIEW", "Done")}
Current Meds:
{if MEDS_AFTER()=="" then "None" else MEDS_AFTER("List") endif}
Hope this helps,
Scott
