      Please clarify what should be pulling into the report when related to eHH-ORAE medication section because our vendor is telling us that the order details of a specified amount is what should pull in, not what the order ended up as and what was actually given. If the CMS files they are using to build this measure are actually meant to capture this way, we believe it should be changed to reflect what the patient actually received. This could have a large impact on our population of patients we submit to CMS and TJC.

      Please clarify what should be pulling into the report when related to eHH-ORAE medication section because our vendor is telling us that the order details of a specified amount is what should pull in, not what the order ended up as and what was actually given. For example, we have had several patients have orders of 25mcg fentanyl ordered and given but the system is pulling 50mcg over. Our vendor says it is because the order was originally put in as 50mcg and then changed to 25mcg before it was administered. This can have a large impact on our population if a dosage is not allowed per VSAC.
