What are we looking for?

We are in search of a vendor who can provide a customizable off-the-shelf comprehensive solution.

The “ideal” off-the-shelf product must contain and provide the following:

Comprehensive Solution 24/7 Web Access User Account Management Module Password Management Module Search Logic Module Uploading of Data Module Security and Auditing Module Analytic Capabilities Interoperability Capabilities

Search Logic(Common Problems Incurred)

See page 30 (3.3 Search Features e and f) In many cases, patients will purposely alter their personal

information in order to avoid detection from the Prescription Monitoring Program. As a result, it is imperative that the PMP system have some type of search mechanism that will accurately group related data (such as, first and last name variations, date-of-births, and addresses) and exclude irrelevant data, improving overall search returns.

There are cases when patients share identical or similar

information, (e.g. father and son, twins, etc). As a result, it is important that the system have the capability to accurately make a distinction between similar, albeit still unique patients, and ensure these inquires are processed accurately.

Search Logic Examples Individuals with the same name and date-of-birth with multiple

addresses. First and last name variations including the date-of-birth:

• Robert Smith DOB: 04/21/1972 vs. Bob Smith DOB: 04/12/1972 • Danny Rhodenn, Sr. DOB: 02/10/1950 vs. Dan Rodem m DOB: 06/21/1945• Shawn William vs. Sean William vs. Shawyn William

Twin scenario:Andrea Smith vs. Andrew Smith, DOB: 07/19/1984 with only two addresses being the same.

Individuals who share the same patient keys, maybe the same date-of-birth and all or some of the addresses are the same. Michael & Shelly Smith or Luann & Linda Smith
