      ​​The stroke measures (CMS71, 72, 104, 105) are included in the measure if they have a non-elective inpatient encounter as identified by value set "Non-Elective Inpatient Encounter" (2.16.840.1.113883.3.117.1.7.1.424). VTE measures (CMS108, 190) are included in the measure if they have an inpatient encounter as identified by value set "Encounter Inpatient" (2.16.840.1.113883.3.666.5.307). If the observation patients do not become inpatients they are not included in these measures.

      For CMS 111/ED-2, Observation patients are not included in the measure. Thank you.

      As per the solution posted in issue number CQM-5787, observation patients that do not become inpatients are not included in the Safe Opioid Prescription measure. Does this apply to all eCQMs?
