      Thank you for your question regarding CMS155v11, Weight Assessment and Counseling for Nutrition and Physical Activity for Children and Adolescents (2023 performance period).

      Numerator 2 is looking for patients who had counseling for nutrition performed during the measurement period. To meet this numerator criteria, you will need EHR documentation of interventions performed using any codes from the "Counseling for Nutrition" (2.16.840.1.113883.3.464.1003.195.12.1003) value set.

      Numerator 3 is looking for patients who had counseling for physical activity performed during the measurement period. To meet this numerator criteria, you will need EHR documentation of interventions performed using any codes from the "Counseling for Physical Activity" (2.16.840.1.113883.3.464.1003.118.12.1035) value set.

      For additional guidance on interpreting eCQM specifications, please refer to resources available on the eCQI Resource Center, such as "Guide for Reading eCQMs v8.0" (https://ecqi.healthit.gov/sites/default/files/Guide-for-Reading-eCQMs-v8.pdf).

    • determining the right resources to use so we're hindered from reporting on it for now.

      I want to know if you can assist me with a certain source to get the required nutrition and physical activity counseling education forms that fulfill the measure.
