      Thank you for your inquiry regarding CMS124v13 (2025 Performance Period). This measure requires a cervical cytology or HPV test, represented using the QDM datatype "Laboratory Test, Performed" using any codes from the "HPV Test" (2.16.840.1.113883.3.464.1003.110.12.1059) or "Pap Test" (2.16.840.1.113883.3.464.1003.108.12.1017) value sets and requires a non-null test result using the QDM attribute "Result." A non-null result can be interpreted as a result that is present in the electronic record in which any entry is acceptable; no specific value or code is required. LOINC code 71432-9 is not included in the "HPV Test" value set because it is used to represent an order for the test, not an observation for the test result. For more details on this value set's inclusion and exclusion criteria, you may visit: https://vsac.nlm.nih.gov/valueset/2.16.840.1.113883.3.464.1003.110.12.1059/expansion/eCQM%20Update%202024-05-02

      CMS 124 HPV Test 71432-9 is not mapped or allowed in the value set for HPV.  Our lab is utilizing LOINC code 71432-9 which appears to be a valid LOINC code but it is not in the HPV value set for this measure.  Please advise if there is a specific reason this code is not included and if it is allowed or recommended to map to another LOINC in its place.  Thank you
