      Thank you for your question specific to CMS108v11 (Venous Thromboembolism Prophylaxis). The initial population is looking for an encounter diagnosis of obstetrics, venous thromboembolism, or obstetrics VTE, as called out "EncounterDiagnoses.code" from the logic below. In response to your question, a patient with a history of obstetrics, VTE, or obstetrics VTE will meet the initial population criteria and proceed to further measure evaluation.

      The initial population for VTE-1 states that it only includes encounters without a diagnosis of obstetrics, venous thromboembolism, or obstetrics VTE.  Does this only include a current diagnosis during the encounter, or does it also include a history of obstetrics, VTE, or obstetrics VTE?
