      Thank you for your inquiry regarding CMS1028v2/PC-07 (Severe Obstetric Complications). The intent of the measure is to report a single delivery encounter only. If combined, the two encounters should be merged into one encounter, so the resulting encounter counts toward the numerator (and denominator), only once. It may be beneficial to have the EMR vendor or your IT department verify that the report meets measure intent.

      When patients are re-admitted to the same facility within a specific timeframe our billing team combines the HARs for both encounters for billing purposes. This is resulting in the record hitting the numerator and denominator twice because it is being counted for both admissions since the 2nd encounter has the coding from the 1st admission included. Wondering if other facilities are seeing this and if there is any way to avoid? There is nothing in the measure specs that address combined HARs.
