In our eCQM report we are currently capturing all emergency department visits with STEMI including the patients who are admitted in our same facility after PCI treatment. We are a STEMI receiving center and we seldom transfer pt out. after PCI procedure. We only transfer pt's who are stable enough but doesn't require PCI.

MY question is are we including all patients seen in Emergency department including inpatient or patients who got admitted in our facility after their PCI treatment in Emergency department? because currently we do and I though this is an outpatient measure and only ED encounters that are not admitted should be in the initial population. please advice?
