Revised eCQM Measure Package for CMS334v4: Cesarean Birth for Eligible Hospitals (EH) and Critical Access Hospitals (CAH)

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has amended the file-naming contained within the individual measure specification package for CMS334v4: Cesarean Birth for the 2023 reporting period for Eligible Hospital and Critical Access Hospital programs.

The eCQM Specifications for Hospital Quality Reporting (ZIP) have been re-published on the eCQI Resource Center on the eCQM Resources tab for Eligible Hospital/Critical Access Hospital eCQMs; the update aligns the file-naming contained within the technical files. The specification has also been updated on the measure-specific page for CMS334v4.

No changes have been made to Value Sets, Direct Reference Codes, or Terminology. The 2023 reporting period eCQM value sets are available through the National Library of Medicine’s Value Set Authority Center (VSAC).
