      Thank you for identifying this concern. After confirming with the measure steward, the measure logic will be revised by moving reasons for not administering aspirin from Denominator Exclusions to Denominator Exceptions during the next scheduled annual EH measure update.

      continuing in my quest for consistancy....

      The logic statements evaluating a reason for no aspirin at discharge should be Denominator EXCEPTIONS not Denominator Exclusions. These logic statements only need to be evaluated when the patient qualified for the numerator, but did not get aspirin at discharge. Moving them to Denominator Exceptions would cut processing time on the many many patients who would either be excluded for another reason, or who DID get Aspirin at Discharge.
