LOINCAdditional LOINC codes e.g., 18500-9, Cytopathology stain thin prep were added The additional LOINC codes will help to improve performance rates provided the clinic captures the appropriate codes in their lab requisitions, EMR, etc.

SNOMEDSNOMED codes for Sampling of cervix for Papanicolaou smear e.g., 439958008 were removed

from criteria of patients that meet the numerator

Potential reduction in performance rate if deleted

codes were exclusively used to document screening

Population CriteriaRevisions/ additions to “visit types” for patients who will meet the initial denominator criteria were made.Look-back period for encounter shortened from 2 years to 1 year.Look-back period for Pap test unchanged, though worded differently.

MU 2014 Measure Update Change Summary

ICD 9 and 10 codes Diagnosis

Some ICD 9 & 10 Dx codes for pap smear were removed as indicators for

patients that meet the numerator criteria

Changes may cause a potential reduction in performance rate if

deleted codes are exclusively used to document screening

Several Hysterectomy codes were also deleted. This further clarifies the need

for a patient to have “no residual cervix” in order for them to be

excluded from the initial population/ denominator criteria

CPT Codes & HCPCSVisit codes for patient encounters performed as a group visit e.g. 99411, 99412 or non-physician presence visit e.g., 99211 were removed as encounter types.Some Pap test Cytopathology codes e.g., 88141, 88142 were removed as indicators for patients meeting the numerator criteria. (see excel for detail).Potential reduction in performance rate if deleted codes were exclusively used to document screening.HCPCS Codes related to Medicare Cytopathology were removed, e. g., G0123 correlates to the CPT 88142 which was also removed as an indicator for patients meeting the numeratorPotential reduction in performance rate if deleted codes were exclusively used to document screening

Cervical Cancer Screening Measure MU 2014

Percentage of women 21-64 years of age, who received one or more Pap tests to screen for cervical cancer.

National Quality Strategy (NQS) Domain – Clinical Process/Effectiveness

• Women with one or more Pap tests during the measurement period or the two years prior to the measurement period

Numerator

• Women 23-64 years of age with a visit during the measurement periodDenominator

Explanation and Impact of ChangesPopulation Criteria

Look-back period for encounter shortened from 2 years to 1 year, so population eligible for the denominator will be smaller.

Look-back period for Pap unchanged [measurement period or the two years prior to the measurement period], although worded differently in 2014 specs.

Explanation and Impact of ChangesPopulation Criteria

Revisions/ additions to the visit types for patients that will fall into the initial population/ denominator.

2011 Criteria • Encounter Types :OB/GYN or Outpatient• Pap laboratory test result had a 3 year look back

2014 Criteria • Encounter Types Performed: • Office Visit, • Face-to-Face Interaction, • Preventive Care Services, • Established Office Visit, 18 and Up, • Preventive Care Services-Initial Office Visit,
