General Information

For CY2024: Hospitals can attest to submitting FOUR quarters of ePC measures -06 measure (eCQMseCQM) instead of four quarters of chart-abstracted PC-06 measures for their Perinatal Care measures via the Chart-Abstracted Submission menu.

NOTE: This is a one for one replacement:

Correct submit ePC-06 instead of PC-06

Not Correct: submit ePC-02 instead of PC-06

  • If an organization is uncertain the eCQM data can be submitted (e.g., ePC-06), we strongly suggest the chart-abstracted data is entered until it is certain the eCQM data can be successfully submitted.

  • A PC measure submitted as a chart-abstracted measure for all 4 quarters, may also be submitted as an eCQM.

  • If applicable, every ePC eCQM submitted for counts towards both an organization's PC requirement and eCQM requirement.May replace none, some, or all required PC measures with ePC measures.

  • Organizations should begin submitting chart-abstracted PC-06 for 1Q and subsequent quarters if they are uncertain they can submit ePC-06 (eCQM) - see examples below.

REMINDER: In order to meet chart-abstracted measure requirements, data is submitted for four quarters. Submitting less than four quarters of an eCQM does not meet the requirement.

  2. HCO submits first quarter of chart-abstracted PC-06 measure, then switches to submitting all four quarters of ePC-06 as an eCQM instead

    1. The Perinatal Care requirement is met by submitting four quarters of ePC-06, ePC-02, and ePC-07 eCQM data.

    2. HCO receives feedback on both chart-abstracted data submitted for the first quarter, and eCQM data submitted.

  3. HCO does not submit chart-abstracted PC-06 measures during 1Q

    1. The HCO is required to submit eCQM ePC-06 data in order to meet the PC requirement, in addition to ePC-02 and ePC-07 for the entire calendar year.

How To Attest:

  • Click on the open button for the Perinatal Care measure for which you wish to attest to submit via eCQM.

  • Select the toggle on the right-hand side, “Attest to submit via eCQM”. By clicking on that toggle, you are attesting that you will be submitting this measure as eCQM data instead of aggregate chart-abstracted data.
