*ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

  • The Ejection Fraction result LOINC code can be linked to a numeric template field.
  • The patient must be at least 18 years of age prior to the start of the measurement period.
  • A Medication Not Ordered may be undone using the Undo Medication Not Ordered option in the Medication button.  It must be done in the same note in which it was originally indicated.
  • 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 in the MIPS Dashboard. Please add these additional patients to the denominator and recalculate the percentage for Attestation purposes.
