      ​​Thank you for your question on CMS159, Depression Remission at Twelve Months. We think your question is about use of the FACIT-Pal and determining if the denominator exclusion for palliative care is met. We expect that a palliative care assessment that occurred on the last day of the measurement period would satisfy the denominator exclusion criteria, regardless of the time of day it was performed. Please let us know if this does not answer your intended question.

      For CMS159V11, when Valueset: Functional Assessment of Chronic Illness Therapy - Palliative Care Questionnaire (FACIT-Pal) is being tested 

      PHQ 9 and PHQ 9M Tool with a Result >9 is documented on 11/20/2021 at 7:00 AM and below are the 2 questions I have:

       

      1) Considering the Measure Assessment Period ends (Initial PHQ9 Assessment of greater than 9 + 12 months+ 60 days), should it consider all day of 01/19/2023?

      2) If not, then should it not consider it at least until 01/19/2023 6:59 AM?
