Software

RPMS server software supporting BCMA began with EHR version 1.1 patch 11 and is supported with patch 12. The current version is patch PSB*3.0*42. The GUI workstation software is a controlled release and will be installed as it is deployed at individual hospitals. These applications are PSB3_0P42.EXE and XWB1_1P29PG.EXE.

There are two types of BCMA installation:

  1. Standard installs the BCMA GUI application for an end user on the BCMA workstation.
  2. Complete installation will also install a GUI for BCMA Site Parameters to be used by the BCMA Coordinator to configuration the application.
