      When an ED encounter ends within 1 hour of start of an Inpatient encounter, but the patient was not located in an ED location at all, according to https://oncprojectracking.healthit.gov/support/browse/QRDA-658 "When the facility location is missing, message id 20160110 should be returned for measure observations. 20160110 [Message #] EXCLUDED: Unable to perform measure calculation, time and date requirements not present. Measure Exclusion

      However, during a recent submission, the following message was received: 90007 IN STRATA: Patient meets criteria for inclusion in this measure stratification.

      Is the expectation that the patient should still be reported within a stratum total, even when the measure observation was not calculated due to the missing location information? Please clarify.

       

      Thanks.
