Required Data Elements for the Numerator:
This can be captured by completing the Blessed Orientation Memory Concentration Test (Cognitive Assessment) via the Screening widget.
The questionnaire is accessed by clicking the corresponding button at the top of the dialog. After the questionnaire is accessed, you can configure the answers for the various questions. Do note if the answer to the first question (Screening not done for medical reason), is Yes, the assessment questionnaire sections below will be grayed out and not score will be given. Likewise, if the answer to the second question (Screening not done for patient reason), is anything other than Yes or blank (unanswered), the assessment questionnaire sections below will be grayed out and not score will be given.
The Repeat the memory phrase… link provides access to detailed information on how to score this aspect of the questionnaire.
The various assessment questions have a measured Total Score based on the answered questions allowing you to quickly determine if the patient assessment is consistent with dementia and thereby offer further testing or treatment as needed. If you click the Total Score link, additional information is provided, displaying how the scoring is conducted and providing further information.
In addition, you can determine how this information is outputted to the note. You can choose only to output only the Title, to output the configured information in List format, or to output the configured information in Paragraph format. When information is configured in the Screening dialog, the applicable LOINC and/or SNOMED codes will be attached to the options selected and will be used to access any applicable Meaningful Use quality measures. Likewise, the information will also appear in the History tab for the patient.
DENOMINATOR EXCEPTIONS:
This can be captured in the Screening dialog, by selecting a reason in the Screening not done for patient reason drop-down list of the Blessed Orientation Memory Concentration Test (Cognitive Assessment) screening.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
- Cognition can be assessed by the clinician during the patient’s clinical history.
- The only data used to determine the denominator is data from ChartMaker Clinical. If a patient encounter was not entered into Clinical, that encounter is not included in the denominator for the statistical calculations on the MIPS Dashboard. Please add these additional patients to the denominator and recalculate the percentage for Attestation purposes.
