Measure scores are “top-box” scores that reflect the percent of respondents who select the most positive response category(ies) in response to the survey item(s) within the measure. Therefore, the numerator is the number of respondents who select the most positive response category(ies) in response to the survey items within the measure.
DenominatorSurvey respondents are patients receiving care from home-based serious illness programs. Survey eligibility criteria and exclusions are detailed below in sections sp.16 – sp.18. Screener questions and tailored non-applicable response options (e.g., I did not want help for my pain) are used to identify respondents who are and are not eligible to respond to survey items included in evaluative measures. Therefore, denominators vary by survey item (and corresponding multi-item measures, if applicable) according to the eligibility of respondents for each item.

Effective March 27, 2023, the National Quality Forum (NQF) is no longer the consensus-based entity (CBE) funded through the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) National Consensus Development and Strategic Planning for Health Care Quality Measurement Contract. Battelle has been selected to oversee the endorsement & maintenance (E&M) of clinical quality and cost/resource use measures. Since the Fall 2022 cycle launched at NQF, measures submitted to this E&M cycle continued along the prior E&M protocols that were in place at time of the Fall 2022 “Intent to Submit.” Battelle took over the E&M work for the Fall 2022 cycle after developers and/or stewards submitted their full measure information to NQF, which for CBE #3726, the most recent measure specifications can be found here: https://p4qm.org/sites/default/files/2024-02/3726.zip
Battelle took over the E&M work beginning with the public comment period to close the E&M committees for the post-comment meeting, convening the CSAC to render a final endorsement decision, and executing the appeals period.
