Hey Frankie- I'm afraid there's nothing glamorous about what you need to do - long-hand edits to the fields with the NDC's on your shelves is most likely where you need to be. How about opening up pg2, going to the NDC field, <F10>, and then scanning the barcode to populate the field? It obviously has to be a 100% match, so this is probably a RPh task instead of a Tech.

I have to repair this, but am at a loss as to how I need to go about it. I can not find a reference source to tell me what the primary NDC # should be. I have spoken with MediSpan and Meditech to avail. Now we are in the process of scanning in our alternate NDCs off the items on the shelf and many of these offending items will now have what should be the primary NDC listed as an alternate NDC in the DD. Aside from that, these items will never be updated by our Medispan files quarterly, because MediSpan files items by the NDC number. I am open for suggestions Frankie Young RN/Clinical Pharmacy Analyst St Joseph Regional Health Care 2670 E. 29th, Suite A Bryan, TX 77802-2544 [EMAIL PROTECTED] 979-776-2431 =*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*= To subscribe or unsubscribe to the meditech-l, visit MTUsers.NET.
