Now Updated: eCQM Tools, Resources, & Collaboration (InfoTRAC) and Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) Webpages on the eCQI Resource Center

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has updated the Electronic Clinical Quality Measure (eCQM) Tools, Resources, & Collaboration (InfoTRAC) webpage on the Electronic Clinical Quality Improvement (eCQI) Resource Center. This interactive page merges the previous InfoTRAC graphic with the eCQM Tools Library to provide an in-depth overview of the tools, standards, and resources used in the various stages of the eCQM lifecycle. Stakeholders can filter based on category and role and find references specific to their areas of interest.

All the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) pages and Questions & Answers pages on the eCQI Resource Center have been combined on a single webpage and all are now FAQs. It includes information on:

• The eCQI Resource Center – How to set up an account and receive alerts for news and  events
• The Measure Collaboration (MC) Workspace – How to interact with other stakeholders and utilize the eCQM Concepts and eCQM Testing Opportunities modules
• Clinical Quality Language (CQL) – Resources to learn more about the benefits of this eCQM standard, and resources for beginners
• Quality Data Model (QDM) – Ways to get involved and keep up-to-date on issues related to the QDM standard
