      Hello. Thank you for your inquiry regarding CMS2v14. This measure is patient-based, and depression screening is required once per measurement period, not at all encounters. The screening does not have to take place at the final qualifying encounter, so as long as it takes place on or 14 days before any qualifying encounter during the measurement period the screening will satisfy measure criteria.

      Does the measure evaluate only the most recent qualifying encounter, and if the patient met the criteria in previous encounters but fails to meet them in the most recent one, does that result in failing the measure?
