      Thank you for your inquiry specific to CMS190v12 (Intensive Care Unit Venous Thromboembolism Prophylaxis). Based on the information you provided, the patient will satisfy the numerator condition of "Encounter with VTE Prophylaxis Received on Day of or Day After First ICU Stay or Procedure". The Enoxaparin (which is included in value set "Low Molecular Weight Heparin for VTE Prophylaxis") was administered on the same day of or day after the ICU admission (6/20). If the medication was administered on the same day (6/20), the timing element of DateTime is not considered.

      I have the following scenario-

      Pt ICU encounter start 06/19 at 1200

      Pt ICU encounter end 06/20 at 1500

      Enoxaparin administered SQ 06/20 at 1700

      Guidance states, "Encounter with VTE Prophylaxis Received on Day of or Day after First ICU stay or Procedure"

      QUESTION- would the enoxaparin administered the day after the First ICU stay would count toward the NUM even though the timing of it was technically after the pt left the ICU?
