The measure steward for STK 5 does not define a Reason for medication order not done for NQF 438 (STK-5) in the measure logic, they only defined medication administration not done. The med admin not done is captured in a medication administration record.

    • Thank you for your question. The steward agrees if medication, administered not done is included, then medication order not done should be included as well. The update was made during the April 2014 annual EH eCQM update.

      Shouldn't there should be the ability to give a reason why you wouldn't be prescribing the medication since contraindications other than comfort measures is valid. We shouldn't be waiting to look for a reason for not administering because there are time. This is a High priority issue - due to on-going gap analysis and build, we are not able to move forward with technology and process design on STK 5
