      Thank you for inquiry about CMS145v12. To meet the numerator of this measure, a patient must be prescribed beta-blocker therapy at one or more visits during the measurement period in which they are eligible or have documentation in the current medication list that the patient is already taking beta-blocker therapy. A patient who is prescribed or actively taking beta-blocker therapy for a diagnosis prior to or in conjunction with an LVSD diagnosis is eligible for this measure.

      Hello. I have a question re: CMS 145v12 Coronary Artery Disease (CAD): Beta-Blocker Therapy-Prior Myocardial Infarction (MI) or Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction (LVEF less than or equal to 40%) Does the Beta Blocker prescribed have to be linked to the diagnosis of LVSD OR can the patient be prescribed a beta blocker for any diagnosis and that would meet the measure?
