Guidance |
BMI Measurement Guidance: * Height and Weight - An eligible professional or their staff is required to measure both height and weight. Both height and weight must be measured during the measurement period. Self-reported values cannot be used. * The BMI may be documented in the medical record of the provider or in outside medical records obtained by the provider. * If the documented BMI is outside of normal parameters, then a follow-up plan is documented during the encounter or during the measurement period. * If more than one BMI is reported during the measurement period, and any of the documented BMI assessments is outside of normal parameters, documentation of an appropriate follow-up plan will be used to determine if performance has been met. * Review the exclusions and exceptions criteria to determine those patients that BMI measurement may not be appropriate or necessary. Follow-Up Plan Guidance: * The documented follow-up plan must be based on the documented BMI, outside of normal parameters, example: "Patient referred to nutrition counseling for BMI above or below normal parameters." See the Definition section for examples of follow-up plan treatments. Variation has been noted in studies exploring optimal BMI ranges for the elderly (see Donini et al., [2012]; Holme & Tonstad [2015]; Diehr et al. [2008]). Notably however, all these studies have arrived at ranges that differ from the standard range for ages 18 and older, which is >=18.5 and < 25 kg/m2. For instance, both Donini et al. (2012) and Holme and Tonstad (2015) reported findings that suggest that higher BMI (higher than the upper end of 25kg/m2) in the elderly may be beneficial. Similarly, worse outcomes have been associated with being underweight (at a threshold higher than 18.5 kg/m2) at age 65 (Diehr et al. 2008). Because of optimal BMI range variation recommendations from these studies, no specific optimal BMI range for the elderly is used. However, it may be appropriate to exempt certain patients from a follow-up plan by applying the exception criteria. See Denominator Exception section for examples. This eCQM is a patient-based measure. This measure is to be reported a minimum of once per reporting period for patients seen during the reporting period. This measure may be reported by eligible professionals who perform the quality actions described in the measure based on the services provided at the time of the qualifying encounter and the measure-specific denominator coding. Telehealth encounters are not eligible for this measure because the measure requires a clinical action that cannot be conducted via telehealth. This version of the eCQM uses QDM version 5.6. Please refer to the QDM page for more information on the QDM. |

* This eCQM is a patient-based measure. This measure is to be reported a minimum of once per reporting period for patients seen during the reporting period. * There is no diagnosis associated with this measure. * This measure may be reported by eligible professionals who perform the quality actions described in the measure based on the services provided at the time of the qualifying visit and the measure-specific denominator coding. BMI Measurement Guidance: * Height and Weight - An eligible professional or their staff is required to measure both height and weight. Both height and weight must be measured within twelve months of the current encounter and may be obtained from separate encounters. Self-reported values cannot be used. * The BMI may be documented in the medical record of the provider or in outside medical records obtained by the provider. * If the most recent documented BMI is outside of normal parameters, then a follow-up plan is documented during the encounter or during the previous twelve months of the current encounter. * If more than one BMI is reported during the measurement period, the most recent BMI will be used to determine if the performance has been met. * Review the exclusions and exceptions criteria to determine those patients that BMI measurement may not be appropriate or necessary. Follow-Up Plan Guidance: * The documented follow-up plan must be based on the most recent documented BMI, outside of normal parameters, example: "Patient referred to nutrition counseling for BMI above or below normal parameters."
