      https://github.com/cqframework/dqm-content-qicore-2025/issues/48 

      Measure resource generated in MADiE export contains an invalid value for the following extension:
      http://hl7.org/fhir/us/cqfmeasures/StructureDefinition/cqfm-aggregateMethod

      The extension (when the measure is exported from MADiE) incorrectly contains a valueString:
      ```
      "extension": [

      {   "url": "http://hl7.org/fhir/us/cqfmeasures/StructureDefinition/cqfm-aggregateMethod",   "valueString": "Sum" }

      ```
      Examples of this issue are found in the following measures:

      CMS1017FHIRHHFI (Home Health Heart Failure Index) "Sum""Count"
      CMS871FHIRHHHyper (Home Health Hyperglycemia) "Sum"
      CMS986FHIRMalnutritionScore (Malnutrition Score) "Sum""Count""Average"

      The extension is expected contain a code from this ValueSet:
      https://terminology.hl7.org/5.2.0/ValueSet-measure-aggregate-method.html 

      ```
      "extension": [

      {   "url": "http://hl7.org/fhir/us/cqfmeasures/StructureDefinition/cqfm-aggregateMethod",   "valueCode": "sum" }

      ```
