Hi,
The new release is barely out and here’s a “more please”.
I’m wondering what’s the process for adding more CQM tests.
This would be more applicable to my practice .
NQF 0052 Use of Imaging Study: Low Back Pain
Title: Low Back Pain: Use of Imaging Studies Description: Percentage of patients with a primary diagnosis of low back pain who did not have an imaging study (plain x-ray, MRI, CT scan) within 28 days of diagnosis.
I know zero php, but if I were able to write the code to get a test to work, would there need to be another go-round with the accreditation organization. If there was need for further accreditation what would be the cost ?
Note we have 4 git mirrors and the main git repo on sourceforge, so this optional may potentially be available on these other sites (to see quick links to mirrors look at bottom right of the www.open-emr.org home page.
I am having troubles getting values in the Standard Measures report. I have created several patients, recorded three encounters for 3 patients, with vitals, reminders configured, prescriptions. When I go to the Reports - Clinic - Standard Measures report and click submit, all metrics report 0%.
If I consider, for instance, “Adult Weight Screening and Follow Up”, what do I need to do to a patient’s record to get some values for that metric? I thought that just the Vitals was enough, but apparently something else is needed.
On online demo, adding a patient greater than 18 years of age and then making an encounter and placing a weight in the vital form then showed up in the Standard Measures report.
There are 3 encounters for 3 patients, each is over 65 years old, for one same doctor. For each patient, the vitals were recorded, including weight and height.
On the report, I was expecting to see a denominator of 3 for the provider. Instead, the denominator is 1 and the numerator is 0.
I am not sure if my previous reply was posted. So here it goes again:
There are 3 patients with one encounter each with the same provider. For each patient there are vitals including weight and height. The standard measures report has a denomitanor = 1, when I was realy expecting 3. The numerator =0, when I was expecting 3.
Rule Set I have tried Active Alert, Passive Alert, Patient Reminders
Plan Set I have tried Ignore and Active Plans
Provider I have tried All and also choosing the specific provider who attended all 3 encounters.
I have tried all possible comninations between Plan Set and Rule Set, with the specific provider selected. It is always the same result: denominator = 1 (instead of 3) and numerator = 0 (instead of 3)
Hi,
Is this still an issue? If so, then likely your workplace is blocking non-standard http ports, and would recommend trying from your home internet connection.

Yes
What is the php file used to create the standard measures report? I would like to see if it is looking for some data in the database and it is not finding it.
I was able to figure out that this depends on the filters setup. I got it to work.
By the way, I was able to relate the MU requirements to the OpenEMR specific features to comply and attest MU in order to obtain the stimulus money. So I created what I call a Traceability Matrix, where I relate each MU requirement to the corresponding OpenEMR feature where it is implemented. The document is neither final nor perfect, but is a good starting point that I could share with the community and get other people to add to it. Let me know if you are interested.
I am interested in this matrix. Please feel free to send it to OpenEMR documentation (and/or to myself), if possible. This is helpful for other entities who has not started on attestation yet.
