Clarification needed regarding PC-05a
As of October 1, 2015 discharges, The Joint Commission has retired PC-05a due to the challenge of capturing the mothers' preference in regards exlusively breast feeding. As the Joint Commission is the PC-05 MU measure steward, will this impact MU reporting of PC-05a data? This documentation occurs in the initial discussion with the mother and becomes a part of her record. The newborn EHR consists of the delivery summary report, which information from the mother's record is included; the feeding plan. Our team plans to incorporate the date and time of documentation of the mothers feeding plan in the newborn EHR delivery summary. Will this meet the requirement for MU as documentation of feeding plan?
