eCQM Data Element
Constrained to codes in the Encounter, Performed: Hospital Services for urology care value set (2.16.840.1.113762.1.4.1164.64)
(2.16.840.1.113762.1.4.1164.64)
Data elements that meet criteria using this datatype should document that the encounter indicated by the QDM category and its corresponding value set is in progress or has been completed.
The "Encounter, Performed" participant references the primary participant.
Previous versions of QDM included an attribute principal diagnosis, defined as the condition that, after study, was determined to be the principal cause of the admission. QDM version 5.6 addresses that concept using the diagnosis rank=1.
Timing:
Notes:
relevantPeriod addresses the time between the start of an action to the end of an action. Each QDM datatype using relevantPeriod defines specific definitions for the start and stop time for the action listed.
Note: negation rationale indicates a one-time documentation of a reason an activity is not performed. Negation of QDM datatype-related actions for a reason always use the author dateTime attribute to reference timing and must not use relevantPeriod
