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 Fee
Basis (FB) software modules that would allow segregating all billing
and collection activities for Non-Department of Veterans Affairs (VA)
Care Third Party Insurance carriers' reimbursement.

The primary goal of this enhancement is to increase timeliness and
collections of billable Non-Veterans Affairs (VA) care services.
Enhancements to existing VistA IB, AR, and Fee software applications
would allow for increased efficiency in workflow processes leading to
best practices that would ultimately be reflected in improved customer
service to our Veteran population.

The second goal of this enhancement is to prepare the IB and AR software
modules for the implementation of the changes required by the Maintaining
Internal Systems and Strengthening Integrated Outside Networks
(MISSION) Act.

In order to meet these goals, this patch:

1. Corrects the LIST ALL BILLS report to display the Action Type
without truncating the first word.

2. Changes the Rate Schedules for the specialized DoD and TRICARE
Rate Types to use the Interagency Charge Sets for Inpatient Billing
and TRICARE RX for Pharmacy Billing.

3. Ensures that the Rate Schedules for the Community Care No Fault
Rate Types added in IB*2.0*618 are properly defined in the event
that a site does not have it'S No Fault Rate Schedules defined
and loaded.

4. Corrected the Eligibility Logic (field 40) in the Action Type File
(350.1) for the CC and CHOICE RX Action types to prevent an error from
occurring during Outpatient Pharmacy processing. [INC 5750961]
