Patients who receive heparin as a "flush" for intravenous lines are falling into eMeasure 109 due to the RXNorm code and Heparin intravenous dosing being included in the Value Set. This code should not be included in the Value Set for eMeasure 109 as it is not a treatment dose, but rather a means of maintaining IV patency. Please reconsider the inclusion of RXNorm code 1361048 in eMeasure 109 due to the common use for IV patency.
Heparin flush doses for IV patency should not be included in eMeasure 109 Value Set
