From ED LaunchPoint, right-click in patient row and choose Set Events.


 

Select Perform BPMH and click OK.


 

This will insert a capsule icon  into the Events section of the Tracking Shell that BPMH team monitors to alert them of a new patient who needs to be interviewed.  

When the BPMH team interviews the patient, they will remove the capsule icon and insert a comment in the OOD column, BPMH in progress while they are working on the BPMH interview and CST Cerner entry, then change the comment to BPMH done or BPMH complete when it is finished.

Once the BPMH Team has finished documenting the BPMH in CST Cerner, the Orders screen in the patient’s chart will show a green check mark for Meds History, indicating to the admitting providers that the BPMH is complete and they can proceed to Medication Reconciliation at Admission to reconcile orders.


 

Please refer to site guidelines for BPMH Team availability and after-hours process.

Some sites may prefer that the BPMH is completed by the BPMH Team when they are back on duty, OR have virtual BPMH coverage for off-hours OR the BPMH shall be taken by the provider admitting the patient after hours.

The Paper BPMH form may be used by the BPMH team to capture the patient’sBest Possible Medication History.. The form will also be used when CST Cerner is unavailable, for example, during a downtime or if a WOW is not available.
