Electronic Clinical Quality Measures
Electronic clinical quality measures (eCQMs) are measures specified in a standard electronic format that use data electronically extracted from electronic health records (EHR) and/or health information technology (IT) systems to measure the quality of health care provided. The eCQMs used by 草莓社区 are updated on an annual basis to account for changes in clinical evidence, measure logic, and coding updates. 草莓社区 maintains close alignment with CMS measures where possible and continues to advance eCQM development to drive quality improvement. The following sections provides links to eCQM specifications used by 草莓社区 and access to support resources.
The measures accepted by 草莓社区 that are in alignment with CMS are: GMCS, HH-Hyper, HH-Hypo, HH-ORAE, Safe Use of Opioids – Concurrent Prescribing, PC-02, PC07, STK-2, STK-3, STK-5, VTE-1, VTE-2, OP-40. Specifications and support documents for these eCQMs are available on the eCQI Resource Center Eligible Hospital/Critical Access Hospital and Outpatient Quality Reporting eCQM webpages.
