      Thanks!!



      The measure developer added all the codes deemed appropriate to best represent concepts required for the value set and included all types of referrals. Different providers may code referrals differently. We included codes with "private referrals" in their definitions as well as just "referrals". The underlying definitions and intent of using the "referral" qualifier is unique to the code developers.

      For the measure "Closing the referral loop: receipt of specialist report", The value set includes SNOMED coding for both "Referrals" as well as "Private Referrals". Would you please define the difference between the two?
