      Thank you for your question. The measure logic intends to capture the education components related to warfarin therapy management that should be included in any materials given to the patient.​ While these educational components may be related to the same topic, they cover distinct and important aspects of warfarin management. We do recognize the potential burden of documenting each educational component individually. Please take a look at https://jira.oncprojectracking.org/browse/CQM-1693 for an example of how documentation can be streamlined while still complying with the eCQM logic requirements.

      For VTE 5 Warfarin education the measure has 4 concepts that the nurse should teach. The report logic though requires that 7 concepts be documented electronically (one from each value set) to capture a patient in the numerator. The value sets seem to overlap in terms of education topics (Vitamin K intake and Dietary Advice; INR monitoring). Can this be reviewed as it doesn't make sense to the clinical staff to have to document 7 items when the measure lists 4 topics to teach
