Diabetes: Eye Exam eCQM CMS131v11

Description:

Percentage of patients 18-75 years of age with diabetes and an active diagnosis of retinopathy in any part of the measurement period who had a retinal or dilated eye exam by an eye care professional during the measurement period or diabetics with no diagnosis of retinopathy in any part of the measurement period who had a retinal or dilated eye exam by an eye care professional during the measurement period or in the 12 months prior to the measurement period.

Guidance:

The eye exam must be performed by an ophthalmologist or optometrist, or there must be evidence that fundus photography results were read by a system that provides an artificial intelligence (AI) interpretation.

This eCQM is a patient-based measure.

Initial Population:

Patients 18-75 years of age at the end of the measurement period, with diabetes with a visit during the measurement period.
