Clinical Quality Measure Specification for Meaningful Use

This document outlines goals to streamline eMeasure computation, reduce compliance efforts for quality reporting, and analyze existing standards and processes related to Stage 2 Meaningful Use (MU) Clinical Quality Measures (CQM). It emphasizes the importance of a strong eMeasure ecosystem through clear, platform-independent specifications and the use of curated Value Sets based on HITSC recommendations. Key topics include usability, the National Quality Forum Quality Data Model (QDM), HL7 Health Quality Measures Format (HQMF), and the NQF Measure Authoring Tool (MAT).

  1. Clinical Quality Measure Specification for Meaningful Use

  2. Agenda • Goal • Simplify computation of eMeasure • Reduce level of effort to comply with quality reporting requirements • Analysis of Standards, Tools, and Processes for Stage 2 MU Clinical Quality Measures (CQM) • In progress • Get direction for next steps

  3. Goal: Strong MU eMeasure Ecosystem • Provide clear, and platform independent specifications • Simple to implement and comply with quality reporting requirement • Uses curated Value Sets based on HITSC recommendations • Integrates easily into vendor EHR

  4. Analysis of CQM Standards • National Quality Forum (NQF) Quality Data Model (QDM) • For Syntax and semantics • HL7 Health Quality Measures Format (HQMF) • Enabling eMeasure development and execution • NQF Measure Authoring tool (MAT) • Usability • Maintenance (Versioning) • Certification of eMeasure • 113 NQF published eMeasure

  5. Next Steps • Complete analysis and determine next steps for • QDM • HQMF • MAT • Determine transition/implementation strategy for using recommended value sets • Focus on Stage 2 MU quality measures while ensuring long term improvements are made to eMeasure ecosystem • How can we best leverage input from HITSC in this process?
