Please refer to the eCQI resource center for more information on the QDM.ĭiabetes: Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) Poor Control (> 9%) This version of the eCQM uses QDM version 5.5. Only patients with a diagnosis of Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes should be included in the denominator of this measure patients with a diagnosis of secondary diabetes due to another condition should not be included. If the HbA1c test result is in the medical record, the test can be used to determine numerator compliance. Patient is numerator compliant if most recent HbA1c level >9%, the most recent HbA1c result is missing, or if there are no HbA1c tests performed and results documented during the measurement period. Patients whose most recent HbA1c level (performed during the measurement period) is >9.0%Įxclude patients whose hospice care overlaps the measurement period.Įxclude patients 66 and older who are living long term in an institution for more than 90 consecutive days during the measurement period.Įxclude patients 66 and older with advanced illness and frailty because it is unlikely that patients will benefit from the services being measured.
