This measure scores a hospital on the incidence among its patients during the month following discharge from an inpatient stay having a primary diagnosis of heart failure for three types of events: readmissions, ED visits and evaluation and management (E&M) services.
The TAVR 30-day morbidity/mortality composite is a hierarchical, multiple outcome risk model that estimates risk standardized results (reported as a “site difference”) for the purpose of benchmarking site performance. This measure estimates hospital risk standardized site difference for 5 endpoints (death from all causes, stroke, major or life-threatening bleeding, acute kidney injury, moderate or severe paravalvular aortic regurgitation) within 30 days following transcatheter aortic valve replacement.

Percentage of calendar months within a 12-month period during which a hemoglobin level is measured for patients aged 18 years and older with a diagnosis of advanced chronic kidney disease (CKD) (stage 4 or 5, not receiving Renal Replacement Therapy [RRT]) or End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) (who are on hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis) who are also receiving erythropoiesis-stimulating agent (ESA) therapy have a hemoglobin level > 12.0 g/dL
Percentage of calendar months within a 12-month period during which patients aged 18 years and older with a diagnosis of End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD) receiving hemodialysis three times a week for >= 90 days have a spKt/V >= 1.2
