Just Added: Additional CMS Eligible Clinician eCQMs and Data Element Definitions to the Collaborative Measure Development Workspace, Data Element Repository

In December 2018, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) expanded the Electronic Clinical Quality Improvement (eCQI) Resource Center (RC) to include the Collaborative Measure Development (CMD) Workspace. The CMD Workspace brings together a set of interconnected resources, tools, and processes to promote clarity, transparency, and better interaction across stakeholder communities that develop, implement, and report electronic clinical quality measures (eCQMs).
The CMD Workspace includes a landing page, with information about the five planned modules housed in the Workspace, and the first module to go live, the Data Element Repository (DERep). The DERep contains definitions for standardized eCQM data elements currently used in CMS quality and value-based programs and clearly presents data element definitions for all eCQMs used in CMS’s quality reporting programs. The DERep provides clarity for clinicians, quality measurement specialists, electronic health record (EHR) vendors, and information technology staff when representing and mapping data required for eCQMs used in these programs. The additional 42 CMS Eligible Clinician eCQMs have now been added to the DERep to complete the information in the data element repository for all available 2019 CMS eCQMs.
Look for forthcoming communication on go-live timelines for the other planned CMD Workspace modules that will include: eCQM Concepts, New eCQM Clinical Workflow, eCQM Test Results, and automated updates on eCQMs under development.
CMS encourages users to explore the CMD Workspace and DERep. Join the interactive user-centered community and provide feedback at ecqi-resource-center@hhs.gov.
