Rubella Indicators Union

eCQM Union

Performance/Reporting Period
2019

Data Elements contained within the Union

["Diagnosis": "Rubella"]

Value Set Description from VSAC
Clinical Focus: This value set contains concepts that represent rubella infections.
Data Element Scope: This value set may use the Quality Data Model (QDM) category related to Diagnosis.
Inclusion Criteria: Includes only relevant concepts associated with all associated rubella infections. This is a grouping of ICD-10-CM and SNOMED CT codes.
Exclusion Criteria: No exclusions.

Constrained to codes in the Diagnosis: Rubella value set (2.16.840.1.113883.3.464.1003.110.12.1037)

QDM Datatype and Definition (QDM Version 5.3)

"Diagnosis"

Data elements that meet criteria using this datatype should document the Condition/Diagnosis/Problem and its corresponding value set. The onset dateTime corresponds to the implicit start dateTime of the datatype and the abatement dateTime corresponds to the implicit stop dateTime of the datatype. If the abatement dateTime is not present, then the diagnosis is considered to still be active. When this datatype is used with timing relationships, the criterion is looking for an active diagnosis for the time frame indicated by the timing relationships.

Timing: The Prevalence Period references the time from the onset date to the abatement date.

["Laboratory Test, Performed": "Rubella Antibody Test (IgG Antibody Titer)"]

Value Set Description from VSAC
Clinical Focus: This value set contains concepts that represent laboratory tests for the titre (amount) of rubella IgG antibody in serum.
Data Element Scope: This value set may use the Quality Data Model (QDM) datatype related to Laboratory Test, Performed.
Inclusion Criteria: Includes only relevant concepts associated with testing to identify titres for rubella IgG antibody.
Exclusion Criteria: No exclusions.

Constrained to codes in the Laboratory Test, Performed: Rubella Antibody Test (IgG Antibody Titer) value set (2.16.840.1.113883.3.464.1003.198.12.1063)

QDM Datatype and Definition (QDM Version 5.3)

"Laboratory Test, Performed"

Data elements that meet criteria using this datatype should document the laboratory test indicated by the QDM category and its corresponding value set was performed.

Timing: The Relevant Period addresses:

  • startTime – when the laboratory test is initiated (i.e., the time the specimen collection begins)
  • stopTime – when the laboratory test is completed (i.e., the time the specimen collection ends)

Examples:

  • Initiation of a venipuncture for a fasting blood glucose to the time venipuncture for the fasting blood glucose is completed – basically a single point in time for many specimen collections
  • Initiation of a 24-hour urine collection for measured creatinine clearance until completion of the 24-hour urine collection

Note – the time that the result report is available is a separate attribute than the time of the study (specimen collection).

["Laboratory Test, Performed": "Rubella Antibody Test (IgG Antibody presence)"]

Value Set Description from VSAC
Clinical Focus: This value set contains concepts that represent laboratory tests for the presence of rubella IgG antibody in serum.
Data Element Scope: This value set may use the Quality Data Model (QDM) datatype related to Laboratory Test, Performed.
Inclusion Criteria: Includes only relevant concepts associated with testing the presence of rubella IgG antibody.
Exclusion Criteria: No exclusions.

Constrained to codes in the Laboratory Test, Performed: Rubella Antibody Test (IgG Antibody presence) value set (2.16.840.1.113883.3.464.1003.198.12.1064)

QDM Datatype and Definition (QDM Version 5.3)

"Laboratory Test, Performed"

Data elements that meet criteria using this datatype should document the laboratory test indicated by the QDM category and its corresponding value set was performed.

Timing: The Relevant Period addresses:

  • startTime – when the laboratory test is initiated (i.e., the time the specimen collection begins)
  • stopTime – when the laboratory test is completed (i.e., the time the specimen collection ends)

Examples:

  • Initiation of a venipuncture for a fasting blood glucose to the time venipuncture for the fasting blood glucose is completed – basically a single point in time for many specimen collections
  • Initiation of a 24-hour urine collection for measured creatinine clearance until completion of the 24-hour urine collection
