IMPORTANT INSTALLATION NOTE:
----------------------------
This patch is part of a multi-package build. There are three patches 
associated with the FY16 HAPE Revenue Enhancement project - IB*2.0*568,
PRCA*4.5*315 and PSO*7.0*463. All three patches are to be installed 
together as a bundle, IB_2_568_PRCA_PSO_BUNDLE_T1.KID
 

Description
-----------
The Chief Business Office (CBO) is requesting system enhancements to
The Veterans Health Information Systems and Technology Architecture
(VistA) Integrated Billing (IB), Accounts Receivable (AR), and 
Outpatient Pharmacy (PSO) software modules.  

The mission of the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Office of 
Information & Technology (OI&T), is to provide benefits and services to 
veterans of the United States Armed Forces. In meeting these goals, 
OIT strives to provide high quality, effective, and efficient 
Information Technology (IT) services to those responsible for providing
care to the veterans at the point-of-care, as well as throughout all 
the points of the veterans health care. The VA depends on Information 
Management/Information Technology (IM/IT) systems to meet mission 
goals.

The overall FY16 HAPE Revenue Enhancement project has been further 
divided into three sub-projects:

NSR #20150506
The Revenue Eligibility Enhancements Project effort for the Chief 
Business Office (CBO), bundles several NSRs with similar business 
needs into a single requirements document.  Successfully addressing 
the requirements contained within this document will enable the 
Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to appropriately bill certain 
subsets of billable events by correcting, automating, or enhancing 
current Veterans Health Information Systems and Technology 
Architecture (VistA) systems.

NSR #20150507
The Revenue Operations Enhancements Project combines serveral NSRs, as 
well. This effort enables the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to 
improve revenue operation functionality related to repayment plans, 
late charge capture, bill suspension reasons, the billing of 
deactivated providers, and the display of appeal rights and 
responsibilities on the Veterans Beneficiary travel Bill of Collections
form.  Implementation of the proposed enhancements will make a 
significant positive impact on stakeholders and target users.

NSR #20150505
The Revenue Reporting Enhancements Project will enable the VA to 
improve tracking and reporting of revenue, and will support revenue 
reporting business rules and guidelines.


PSO*7.0*463 patch enhancements, pertinent to the above NSRs, include:

1.) In the event of a Prescription Reset Status/Cancel Charges action, 
all automatic prepayment generation shall be 
eliminated. 

2.) All "credit balances" that are automatically generated in the event
of a Prescription Reset Status/Cancel Charges action exemption to stop.

3.) A new on-demand List Manager report will be made available for 
identification of Prescription resets. 

4.) The new on-demand report for processing Prescription Resets will 
provide an option to generate a Summary Report and/or Detailed Report.

----------------------------------------------------
Patches for this installation are combined in host file 
IB_2_568_PRCA_PSO_BUNDLE_T1.KID
