Our facility is planning on adding on the BBK module from Meditech. Things are going fairly smoothly except for the TAR piece (Transfusion Administration record). We plan on having our nurses document bedside cheks, vital signs, start and stop times, etc This info should flow through to lab. We are unable to get the vital sign piece to work at all. Anyone out there have any experince with this system that they would be willing to share with us?

COULD ii PLEASE HAVE A COPY OF BOTH AUDITS TOO? THANKS SO MUCH!

I'm wondering how other facilities handle this billing issue: A patient comes in for pre-op bloodwork, including a type and screen and orders for 2 units packed cells. The patient is banded and all work is ordered,done on the pre-op acct. After surgery, the patient goes to the floor and the next day they want to transfuse. It's my understanding that the type and screen and XMatch need to be billed to the pre-op acct and the actual product given needs to be billed to the inpatient acct. We have Meditech and I am trying to figure out a way to set up automatic billing without having to manually remove the product from the pre-op acct and add to the inpatient acct. Any ideas?
