Thank you for inquiring about CMS22v13 Preventive Care and Screening: Screening for High Blood Pressure and Follow-Up Documented eCQM. 1. CPT Code 99214 is a code within the Encounter to Screen for Blood Pressure value set, and thus can be used to assess measure compliance. 2. The follow-up requirements differ based on the blood pressure range and which reading it is. However, education alone is insufficient for elevated or hypertensive ranges. For SBP 120-129, if non-pharmacological interventions (meeting the measure requirements specified below) are recommended, an order for follow-up within 6 months must also be documented. Please refer to the guidance from the Definition section of the measure: 3. "Recommended Blood Pressure Follow-Up Interventions: -Normal BP: No follow-up required for SBP < 120 mmHg AND DBP < 80 mmHg -Elevated BP: Patients with SBP of 120-129 mmHg AND DBP < 80 mmHg:    -Referral to Alternate/Primary Care Health Care Professional    OR    -Follow-up with rescreen within 6 months AND recommend nonpharmacologic interventions -First Hypertensive BP Reading: Patients with one elevated reading of SBP >= 130 mmHg  OR DBP >= 80 mmHg:    -Referral to Alternate/Primary Care Health Care Professional     OR     -Follow-up with rescreen within 4 weeks AND recommend nonpharmacologic interventions -Second Hypertensive BP Reading:    -Second Hypertensive BP Reading: Patients with second elevated reading of            SBP of 130-139 mmHg OR DBP of 80-89 mmHg (and not SBP >=140 OR DBP >=90):           -Referral to Alternate/Primary Care Healthcare Professional            OR           -Nonpharmacologic intervention AND reassessment within 6 months              AND an order for a laboratory test or ECG for hypertension    -Second Hypertensive BP Reading: SBP>=140 or DBP>=90:           -Referral to Alternate/Primary Care Healthcare Professional            OR           -Nonpharmacologic intervention AND BP-lowering medication            AND reassessment within 4 weeks AND an order for a laboratory test or ECG for hypertension The 2017 Guideline outlines nonpharmacologic interventions (lifestyle modifications) which must include one or more of the following as indicated: -Weight Reduction -A “heart-healthy diet,” such as Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) Eating Plan -Dietary Sodium Restriction -Increased Physical Activity -Moderation in alcohol consumption"
