      The current pattern of "Diagnostic Study, Result not done" does not have any negative impact on calculation. The use of "Diagnostic Study, Performed not done" improves clinical readability on the human readable only, and has the same calculation result as the current design. The measure was not changed.

      The logic in The Numerator of this measure doesn't make sense clinically:

      ■OR: "Diagnostic Study, Result not done: Medical Reasons" for "Newborn Hearing Screen Left LOINC Value Set"
      ■OR: "Diagnostic Study, Result not done: Medical Reasons" for "Newborn Hearing Screen Right LOINC Value Set"
      ■OR: "Diagnostic Study, Result: Hearing Examination"
      ■OR: "Diagnostic Study, Result not done: Medical Reasons" for "Hearing Examination SNOMED-CT Value Set"

      It's not the RESULTS of the diagnostic study that is not done for medical reasons, the diagnostic study would never be "Ordered" or "Performed" for medical reasons
