      ​Thank you for your question about the CMS506v6: Safe Use of Opioids – Concurrent Prescribing. Since this measure looks at opioids at discharge, patients who are discharged with two or more opioids regardless of when they are prescribed would remain in the measure.

      If a patient is admitted with the more than 2 opioids, can that be excluded?

       

      Home medications (prior to admission) are commonly continued at discharge.
