Rationale

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is a major driver of morbidity, mortality and high healthcare costs in the United States. Currently, 37 million American adults have CKD and millions of others are at increased risk (National Kidney Foundation [NKF], 2022), with an estimated population prevalence growing to nearly 17% among Americans aged 30 years and older by the year 2030 (Hoerger et al., 2015; Saran et al., 2019). Total Medicare spending in 2016 on both CKD and End-Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) was over $114 billion, comprising 23% of total Medicare fee-for-service spending overall with costs increasing exponentially with advancing CKD (Nichols et al., 2020; Saran et al., 2019). In the US from 2002-2016, the burden of CKD, defined as years of life lost, years living with disability, disability-adjusted life years, and deaths, outpaced changes in the burden of disease for other conditions (Bowe et al., 2018). Patients with CKD are readmitted to the hospital more frequently than those without diagnosed CKD (Saran et al., 2019). CKD is the 9th leading cause of death in the US and is the fastest growing non-communicable disease in terms of in burden largely due to death (Hoerger et al., 2015; Bowe et al., 2018). This public health issue is driven largely by the impact of diabetes—the most common comorbid risk factor for CKD (Bowe et al., 2018; Saran et al., 2019).

The intent of this process measure is to improve rates of guideline-concordant kidney health evaluation in patients with diabetes to more consistently identify and potentially treat or delay progression of CKD in this high-risk population. Annual kidney health evaluation in patients with diabetes to determine risk of CKD using eGFR and uACR is recommended by clinical practice guidelines (American Diabetes Association, 2022; de Boer, 2022; NKF, 2007; NKF, 2012) and has been a focus of various local and national health care quality improvement initiatives, including Healthy People 2030 (Healthy People 2030, 2023). However, performance of these tests in patients with diabetes remains low, with rates that vary across Medicare (41.8%) and private insurers (49.0%) (Alfego et al., 2021; Saran et al., 2019; Stempneiwicz et al., 2021). Low rates of detection of CKD in a population of patients with diabetes have been demonstrated to be associated with low patient awareness of their own kidney health status (Szczech et al., 2014). Indeed, 90% of individuals with CKD are unaware of their condition due to under-recognition and under-diagnosis (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention [CDC], 2023; Saran, et al., 2019). Currently, an individual’s lifetime probability of developing CKD is relatively high, reaching 54% for someone currently aged 30-49 years (Hoerger et al., 2015). Regular kidney health evaluations, utilizing both eGFR and uACR, provide an opportunity to improve identification and potential reversal of worsening kidney function, particularly in high risk populations, such as those with diabetes.

Clinical Recommendation Statement

The following evidence statements are quoted verbatim from the referenced clinical guidelines and other sources, where applicable: At least annually, urinary albumin (e.g., spot urinary albumin-to-creatinine ratio) and estimated glomerular filtration rate should be assessed in people with type 1 diabetes with duration of >=5 years and in all people with type 2 diabetes regardless of treatment. B (American Diabetes Association [ADA] Professional Practice Committee, 2023)
Patients with diabetes should be screened annually for Diabetic Kidney Disease (DKD). Initial screening should commence:

 
  5 years after the diagnosis of type 1 diabetes; (A) or
 
 
  From diagnosis of type 2 diabetes. (B)
 

Screening should include:

 
  Measurements of urinary albumin-creatinine ratio (ACR) in a spot urine sample; (B)
 
 
  Measurement of serum creatinine and estimation of GFR. (B)

Guidance

This measure assesses the performance of a comprehensive kidney evaluation in adults aged 18-85. This measure does not preclude or discourage regular laboratory testing for CKD in patients outside of the age range (patients under 18 years and those over 85 years of age).

The Urine Albumin-Creatinine Ratio (uACR) requirement can be met with a Urine Albumin and Urine Creatinine tests resulted less than or equal to four days apart; the four day window serves as a proxy to accommodate for laboratory processing times. These tests are typically performed on a single urine sample. A calculation of uACR is not required to meet this measure, but it is intended to for the uACR to be calculated for the purposes of kidney health evaluation. If the Urine Albumin and Urine Creatinine tests have different units of measure, they should be converted to the same unit of measure for the purposes of calculating uACR.

The uACR, Urine Albumin or Urine Creatinine test requirements can be met if the lab result is received as a quantitative value or as an undetectable result. Undetectable results can be coded using values in the "Undetectable Lab Result Value" value set.

This eCQM is a patient-based measure.

This version of the eCQM uses QDM version 5.6. Please refer to the eCQI resource center (https://ecqi.healthit.gov/qdm) for more information on the QDM.
