      Thank you for your inquiry on CMS108, Venous Thromboembolism Prophylaxis. Leaving against medical advice (AMA) is not, in and of itself, a valid reason for exclusion. Patient refusal is acceptable, but it needs to be documented within the same timeframe that VTE prophylaxis should have been received.

      The patient is in the hospital from 7/11 to 7/13 and left against medical advice. Will this be considered as an implied refusal and should be excluded? Please advise. Thanks.
