    • Measure
    • None
    • Yes, patients who are diagnosed on 12/31 should be included in the measure.
    • CMS123v3/NQF0056
    • NQF0056/CMS123

      AND NOT: "Occurrence A of Diagnosis, Active: Diabetes" ends before start of "Measurement Period"
      AND: "Occurrence A of Diagnosis, Active: Diabetes" starts before or during "Measurement Period"

      This will identify patients whose diagnosis OVERLAPs the MP.

      Seems like you would want to identify patients who have an active diagnosis of Diabetes at the start of the MP.

      WOuld you want to include a patient whose diagnosis occurred on 12/31?
