    • We are developing an eCQM that uses the ESI triage code to identify the "most urgent care required" ED patients.

      Does a QDM element exist yet to describe the ESI triage code assigned to a patient that enters the Emergency Department? If not, we would like to propose a new element. I am not sure if there is a current category, data type, attribute, and value set that would describe the ESI.
