      Thank you for your inquiry on CMS72v12 Antithrombotic Therapy By End of Hospital Day 2 value set. There is not a specific code for 81mg aspirin with enteric coating (EC) form. However, the value set does contain 308416 aspirin 81 Mg. Delayed Release Oral Tablet. This can be found in the value set "Antithrombotic Therapy Antiplatelet" (OID 2.16.840.1.113762.1.4.1110.61) You can reference the applicable codes containing these values on the Value Set Authority Center (VSAC) at https://vsac.nlm.nih.gov/. Click on the “Search Value Sets” tab and enter the value set ID to review codes included in the respective value set. If mapping is conducted, you should maintain documentation in case of a CMS audit.

    • Medication not considered by value set creates report outcome of Denominator (Numerator Not Met)

      Has there been consideration to adding Aspirin 81 mg EC PO to the Antithrombotic Therapy for Ischemic Stroke value set? We have seen instances where this is being prescribed and administered prior to end of day 2 and the report outcome is Denominator (Numerator Not Met).
