    • Uncertain how to map value set for Confirmed VTE.

      I am working with a team from my organization on mapping for eCQMs. I hope you can answer my question, or direct me to the correct CMS email to obtain guidance. I have run into an interesting problem. We were planning on using a single yes/no question for VTE confirmed in the CMS 110 (VTE 5) Discharge Instructions measure. As you can see below, the value set does not include a generic VTE choice (it does for PE, second to the last in the list). So which one should we choose? I’ve heard that others are mapping to any one of the VTE choices for now. I am afraid this will yield bad data. Any advice would be appreciated!
