    • Yes this is correct that the screening must take place during a qualifying encounter. With this annual update the logic will be updated to more closely align with this intent.
    • CMS2v4/NQF0418
    • Correct report criteria in denominator exclusion and numerator.

      We are expecting that the depression screening is entered on one of the qualifying encounters from the IPP criteria. IF the screening is entered on a non-qualifying encounter, then we would not use that screening as the most recent. Is this correct?

      There are similar references in CQM-1000 and CQM-1082 but the seem to contradict. Please confirm.
