Numerator Instructions:
INVERSE MEASURE- A lower calculated performance rate for this measure indicates better clinical care or control. The “Performance Not Met” numerator option for this measure is the representation of the better clinical quality or control. Submitting that numerator option will produce a performance rate that trends closer to 0%, as quality increases. For inverse measures, a rate of 100% means all of the denominator eligible patients did not receive the appropriate care or were not in proper control.
Numerator Options:
Performance Met:
Patient spent less than three days in hospice care (G9860)
OR
Performance Not Met:
Patient spent greater than or equal to three days in hospice care (G9861)
