Almost all the Inpatient eCQMs use "Encounter, Performed: Encounter Inpatient" QDM Data Element.  We have acute care hospitals that also have the ability to provide Hospice General Inpatient Care (GIP).  Patients can be admitted/discharged as an acute inpatient and then stay in the say hospital and bed and have a new encounter and insurance claim as a Hospice Inpatient patient class.  
These patients are pulling into several of our eCQM patient populations due to the "base class" of the patient being Inpatient.  Should these Hospice (GIP) Inpatient encounters be included in the eCQM population for "Inpatient Encounters"?
