      For 2024 MIPS traditional eCQM #138 Preventive Care and Screening: Tobacco Use: Screening and Cessation Intervention, if there are 0/0 cases for Population 2 (patients who received tobacco cessation intervention during the measurement period or in the six months prior to the measurement period), would population 1 and 3 only be counted towards the final performance score?
