I have a checkbox on a form to add the statement "Medications have been reviewed", with the OBS Term "Meds review" . I want to attach the SNOMED code 428191000124101, that is required to document CMS measure 68 Documentation of Current medications in the Medical Record. We do not use CCC forms.

Can someone give me some direction on how to accomplish this.

All suggestions deeply appreciated.

We use a similar concept for documenting patients declination of BP. The coding we use is below:

{IF DOCUMENT.DECLINED2 <> "" and match(ORDERS_NEW("delim","S"),"SCT-183944003")=="" then

MEL_ADD_ORDER("S", "CQM", "Patient Refused BP", "", "", "", "", "", "", "", "") else "" endif}

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Sincerely,

Go into Admin, codes and categories and choose Data Mapping. Use the 2nd tab and find the OBS Term and it will ask you to map it.

I spoke with a GE rep regarding obs terms and mapping - there is a system glitch where not all obs terms are being looked at by CQR..maybe this has been fixed, but my numbers were off until I switched to using codes and not obs terms.
