      Thank you for your question regarding CMS349v7. The timing phrase "day of" is used to ensure day level precision when capturing patients in the measure. With the "day of" operator, comparisons are actually performed at the "day" and ignore the time component. For example, when using "day of" it ensures patients being seen up to 11:59PM on the last day of the measurement period, in any time zone, are captured in the measure.

      What does "the day of the measurement period" mean in the initial population?

      The measurement period is the entire calendar year. Do they mean any day during the measurement period?
