Thank you for your question regarding CMS139v12, Falls: Screening for Future Fall Risk (2024 performance period). This measure is looking for the percentage of every patient 65 years of age and older who were screened for future fall risk during the measurement period. The measure's numerator, for example, is specifically looking for documentation of an assessment encoded with any of the following codes from the “Falls Screening” value set (2.16.840.1.113883.3.464.1003.118.12.1028) that is performed on a date/time during the measurement period.
