      CMS-all EH measures: QDM5.3 and 5.4 state Author Date/Time can be used for Encounters, Medications, Procedures, devices, Diagnostic Studies, etc. IF the Start Date/Time is missing. Does this apply only to measure developers, or does it also appy when interpreting the logic in the specifications? If a specification says Relevant.Period Start, can we use the Author Date/time if the Relevant.Period Start is missing in the patient file? I'm asking if this is a background rule, or if we only use Start date/time. Thanks.
