Performance/Reporting Period
2022
QDM Category (QDM Version 5.5 Guidance Update):
Family History represents a diagnosis or problem experienced by a family member of the patient. Typically, a family history will not contain very much detail, but the simple identification of a diagnosis or problem in the patient's family history may be relevant to the care of the patient. If a relationship is specified, codes from the HL7 Personal Relationship Role Type value set (2.16.840.1.113883.1.11.19563) should be used to ensure compatibility with Quality Reporting Document Architecture (QRDA) reporting constraints.
