I'm wondering if Centricity has provided a SNOMED code for this measure. If so, is there a particular form that is being utilized to capture this data? So far, none of my pediatric providers are meeting this measure for numerators 2 and 3. Nothing appears in the orders for a SNOMED code, and I'm not sure if it is because we have not created any SNOWMED-CT on our end. My providers are documenting this in the chart note, but we have not created a specific order as noted below directly from the MU guide.

"Please create order codes in Administration with SNOMED-CT

codes and / or CPT codes to capture the appropriate data elements. Also, the measure requires the

intervention to be “performed” in order to include the patient in the numerator. Thus, please complete the

order if the patient has received the counseling. The status of order completed will be counted as intervention

performed"

Any information you can provide will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

it is looking for SNOMED codes. the table in the MU guide (at the bottom of the measure) shows you which codes the system will look for. Here is a screenshot for numerators 2 and 3, so you can see what to look for.

We are also a pediatric office struggling with this measure. We have tried different workflows with no success. We have denominators but no numerators. Anyone have a workflow they are willing to share? I think we are just missing something along the way.
