This file contains a list of the various indicators that Vetlink will send to VistA for the accurate capture of discrepancies and
non-discrepancies. A fundamental objective of MRAR is to identify allergy data omissions and medication adherence discrepancies.
The Kiosk (patient facing) and the staff-facing interface allows a veteran, staff, or provider to change a medication status (e.g.
from 'NO, not taking' to 'Yes, taking as written').
