2026 DRAFT CMS 951 allows "Urine Albumin Creatinine Ratio" outside of the measurement period.
2026 DRAFT CMS 951 has this statement:
Has Urine Albumin Creatinine Ratio Test Performed During Measurement Period
exists ( ["Laboratory Test, Performed": "Urine Albumin Creatinine Ratio"] uACRTest
where Global."NormalizeInterval" ( uACRTest.relevantDatetime, uACRTest.relevantPeriod ) during day of "Measurement Period"
and uACRTest.result is Quantity or uACRTest.result as Code in "Undetectable Lab Result Value")
The where clause looks like this:
Global."NormalizeInterval" ( uACRTest.relevantDatetime, uACRTest.relevantPeriod ) during day of "Measurement Period"
and uACRTest.result is Quantity or uACRTest.result as Code in "Undetectable Lab Result Value")
Which means (during measurement period AND result is quantity) OR result in value set. You can also see this in the ELM. This means that you can pass the where clause by passing the uACRTest.result as Code in "Undetectable Lab Result Value" check.
You likely want
A and (B or C)
instead of
(A and B) or C
