    • Potentially utilizing the incorrect Value Set

      Hello-

      When looking at the eCQM specs on the eCQI center for Opioid Concurrent Prescribing, we see that cancer related pain is an exclusion via OID: 1111.180.

      However-when looking at the CBEID* site, cancer related pain remains an exclusion however, a different OID is noted: 1111.161.

       

      Should we be utilizing CBEID OIDs or only those on the eCQI resource site? 

       

      [Text preserved from the Solution field: Clarify if we should utilize the Value Set posted on the PQR site or the eCQI/VSAC site.]
