Measure Calculation in ChARM EHR: AUTOMATIC
This measure is automatically calculated based on the Pap or HPV tests performed for patients.
To satisfy this measure, for female patient with Age >= 23 and < 64 years, Pap Test (Sample loinc code : 10524-7, 19762-4, 19774-9) should be performed with in 3 years.
Or
For female patient with age >= 30 years and < 64 years, Pap Test (Sample loinc code : 10524-7, 19762-4, 19774-9) and HPV Test (Sample loinc code : 21440-3, 38372-9, 75694-0) should be performed with in five years.
Note: Sample LOINC codes for Pap test are 10524-7, 19762-4, 19774-9 and LOINC codes for HPV test are 21440-3, 38372-9, 75694-0. Before start recording the result, make sure you have updated correct LOINC codes for Pap and HPV test parameters under 'Settings > Labs > Customize Labs'' section. Otherwise the result will not be considered for CQM calculation.
Denominator Exclusion: You can manually exclude a patient from denominator, based on the conditions listed below under 'Encounter > MU' section.
