      You are correct that STK-8 does not capture the observation phased of the encounter. This is an issue common to all eCQMs that we are currently unable to address within eCQM logic. This issue was previously discussed in 2015 as part of the Change Review Process (CRP). Please refer to CQM-1608 for more information on the issue and outcome.
