Guidance required:
Can we use PHQ9 delieverd via patient portal for CPC program CMS159?
Solution:
Thank you for bringing your concern to our attention. We will take your feedback under consideration during the 2018 annual update cycle.
2017 Performance Period EC eCQMs:

CMS159v5/NQF0710
Impact:

Hide
CPC program measure CMS 159 (NQF0710) and ACO MH-1 (NQF0710) are the same measure but contain divergent guidance. The ACO guidance states specifically that "PHQ-9 administration does not require a face to face visit..." The CPC guidance list "None".

We are specifically hoping to leverage the patient centric method of administering screenings via patient portal but are unclear of how to reconcile between the two programs.
