This measure assesses the percentage of hospitalizations of adults aged 65 years and older at the start of the inpatient encounter during the measurement period, with a length of stay equal to or greater than 24 hours, who received optimal malnutrition care where care performed was appropriate to the patient’s level of malnutrition risk and severity. Malnutrition care best practices recommend that for each hospitalization, adult inpatients are (1) screened for malnutrition risk or for a hospital dietitian referral order to be placed, (2) assessed by a registered dietitian (RD) or registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN) to confirm findings of malnutrition risk, and if identified with a “moderate” or “severe” malnutrition status in the current performed malnutrition assessment , (3) receive a current “moderate” or “severe” malnutrition diagnosis by a physician or eligible provider as defined by CMS, and (4) have a current nutrition care plan performed by an RD/RDN.

The RD/RDN, in turn, provides the necessary treatment recommendations to address nutritional status utilizing a nutrition diagnosis and care plan, along with the clinical indicators that inform a medical diagnosis of malnutrition completed by a physician or eligible provider as defined by CMS. The four measure observations individually will only provide a fraction of the necessary information on quality of care for patients at risk for or with malnutrition. For example, knowing which patients have been assessed out of those who were initially identified as at risk, but not knowing if the appropriate proportion of patients were screened upon admission, would be an insufficient assessment of quality of care.Implementation of this measure supports timely malnutrition risk screening and hand off to RDNs for appropriate nutrition assessment for identified patients during the current hospitalization. For patients identified with a moderate or severe malnutrition by the nutrition assessment, best practice also recommends a medical diagnosis by a physician or other eligible clinician and the execution of the nutrition care plan by an RD/RDN. Evidence demonstrates that implementing a standardized protocol for screening, assessment, diagnosis, and care planning results in better identification of malnourished patients and subsequent improvements in rates of associated nutrition interventions. Outcomes modeling, and those reported in other studies, also demonstrate the benefits to patient outcomes, including reduced risk of 30-day readmissions, length of hospital stays, and complications, as well as improved quality of life after hospitalization.

(ASPEN, 2011).This guideline places nutrition assessment and screening in the context of intervention as part of nutrition care. Screening those individuals at risk for malnutrition is the first step in nutrition care as risk for malnutrition, identified by nutrition screening, is associated with longer length of hospital stay, complications, and mortality. Malnutrition screening is also a predictor of mortality risk. Malnourished patients, identified by nutrition assessment tools, have more complications and longer hospitalizations than do patients with optimal nutrition status. Such patients, identified by nutrition assessment tools, have more infectious and noninfectious complications, longer hospital length of stay, and greater mortality. Nutrition intervention is recommended for patients identified by assessment as at risk for malnutrition or malnourished. Nutrition intervention with associated monitoring and evaluation plants in patients identified as at risk for malnutrition or malnourished improves clinical outcomes. Nutrition interventions and their associated monitoring and evaluation plans in malnourished patients are associated with improved nutrition status, nutrient intake, physical function, and quality of life. Hospital readmissions, inpatient length of stay, and complications were reduced with increased nutrition support interventions.

The four populations used to calculate the four components may differ and the measure observations for the four components do not need to be performed sequentially. The initial population are hospitalizations during the measurement period for patients aged 65 years and greater with a length of stay of 24 hours and greater. Component Measure 1: Inpatient hospitalizations for patients with a current "Malnutrition Risk Screening" performed by an eligible healthcare clinician (professional). Component Measure 2: Inpatient hospitalizations for patients with a current "Nutrition Assessment" performed by an RD/RDN, after a "Malnutrition Screening At Risk Result" during the current hospitalization or a "Hospital Dietitian Referral" order from a physician or eligible clinician during the current hospitalization. For Component Measure 1 and Component Measure 2, only report LOINC code '84291-4 Nutrition and dietetics Risk assessment and screening note' when the RD/RDN performs both the "Malnutrition Risk Screening" and "Nutrition Assessment". Component Measure 3: Inpatient hospitalizations for patients with a current documented "Malnutrition Diagnosis" as a result of a current "Nutrition Assessment Status Moderately Malnourished" OR current "Nutrition Assessment Status Severely Malnourished". Component Measure 4: Inpatient hospitalizations for patients with a current "Nutrition Care Plan" performed as a result of a current "Nutrition Assessment Status Moderately Malnourished" OR current “Nutrition Assessment Status Severely Malnourished”. "Population 5 Measure Observation TotalMalnutritionComponentsScore" Calculations -For each hospitalization, Population Criteria 5 represents the subtotal of Measure Observations performed for Population Criteria 1, 2, 3, and 4. -For the reporting facility, the Population Criteria 5 Aggregate Operator 'Count' counts the number of eligible hospitalizations during the measurement period. "Population 6 Measure Observation TotalMalnutritionCompositeScore as Percentage" Calculations: -For each hospitalization, Population Criteria 6 represents the sum of performed Measure Observations 1, 2, 3, and 4 divided by the number of clinically eligible denominators. -For the reporting facility, the Population Criteria 6 Aggregate Operator 'Average' averages the performance of each "TotalMalnutritionCompositeScore as Percentage" across all eligible hospitalizations during the measurement period. "TotalMalnutritionCompositeScore Eligible Denominators" is always 4 except in the following instances: -The "TotalMalnutritionCompositeScore Eligible Denominators" is 1 if ---A "Malnutrition Risk Screening" was performed and a "Malnutrition Screening Not At Risk Result" was identified AND "Hospital Dietitian Referral" was not ordered ---No “Malnutrition Risk Screening” was performed AND “Hospital Dietitian Referral” was not ordered - The "TotalMalnutritionCompositeScore Eligible Denominators" are 2 ---If a "Nutrition Assessment" was performed and a "Nutrition Status Not or Mildly Malnourished" was identified --- A "Malnutrition Risk Screening" was performed and a "Malnutrition Screening Not At Risk Result" was identified AND "Hospital Dietitian Referral" was not ordered --A "Malnutrition Risk Screening" was performed and a "Malnutrition Screening At Risk Result" was identified was ordered but the “Nutrition Assessment” was not performed This eCQM is an episode-based measure. An episode is defined as each inpatient hospitalization or encounter with a length of stay of greater than or equal to 24 hours among individuals 65 years of age and older at the start of the inpatient encounter This version of the eCQM uses QDM version 5.6.

  "description" : "This measure assesses the percentage of hospitalizations of adults aged 65 years and older at the start of the inpatient encounter during the  measurement period, with a length of stay equal to or greater than 24 hours, who received optimal malnutrition care where care performed was appropriate to the patient's level of malnutrition risk and severity. Malnutrition care best practices recommend that for each hospitalization, adult inpatients are (1) screened for malnutrition risk or for a hospital dietitian referral order to be placed, (2) assessed by a registered dietitian (RD) or registered dietitian nutritionist (RDN) to confirm findings of malnutrition risk, and if identified with a \"moderate\" or \"severe\" malnutrition status in the current performed malnutrition assessment , (3) receive a current \"moderate\" or \"severe\" malnutrition diagnosis by a physician or eligible provider as defined by CMS, and (4) have a current nutrition care plan performed by an RD/RDN.",
  "purpose" : "UNKNOWN",
  "usage" : "This measure is constructed of four clinically eligible components that are aggregated as an arithmetic average of eligible hospitalizations and expressed as a percentage. The four populations used to calculate the four components may differ and the measure observations for the four components do not need to be performed sequentially. The initial population are hospitalizations during the measurement period for patients aged 65 years and greater with a length of stay of 24 hours and greater.\n\nComponent Measure  1: Inpatient hospitalizations for patients with a current \"Malnutrition Risk Screening\" performed by an eligible healthcare clinician (professional).\n\nComponent Measure 2: Inpatient hospitalizations for patients with a current \"Nutrition Assessment\" performed by an RD/RDN, after a \"Malnutrition Screening At Risk Result\" during the current hospitalization or a \"Hospital Dietitian Referral\" order from a physician or eligible clinician during the current hospitalization. \n\nFor Component Measure 1 and Component Measure 2, only report LOINC code '84291-4 Nutrition and dietetics Risk assessment and screening note' when the RD/RDN performs both the \"Malnutrition Risk Screening\" and \"Nutrition Assessment\".\n\nComponent Measure 3: Inpatient hospitalizations for patients with a current documented \"Malnutrition Diagnosis\" as a result of a current \"Nutrition Assessment Status Moderately Malnourished\" OR current \"Nutrition Assessment Status Severely Malnourished\". \n\nComponent Measure 4: Inpatient hospitalizations for patients with a current \"Nutrition Care Plan\" performed as a result of a current \"Nutrition Assessment Status Moderately Malnourished\" OR current “Nutrition Assessment Status Severely Malnourished”. \n\n\"Population 5  Measure Observation TotalMalnutritionComponentsScore\" Calculations\n-For each hospitalization, Population Criteria 5 represents the subtotal of Measure Observations performed for Population Criteria 1, 2, 3, and 4. \n-For the reporting facility, the Population Criteria 5 Aggregate Operator 'Count' counts the number of eligible hospitalizations during the measurement period.\n \n\"Population 6 Measure Observation TotalMalnutritionCompositeScore as Percentage\" Calculations:\n-For each hospitalization, Population Criteria 6 represents the sum of performed Measure Observations 1, 2, 3, and 4 divided by the number of clinically eligible denominators. \n-For the reporting facility, the Population Criteria 6 Aggregate Operator 'Average' averages the performance of each \"TotalMalnutritionCompositeScore as Percentage\" across all eligible hospitalizations during the measurement period.\n\n\"TotalMalnutritionCompositeScore Eligible Denominators\" is always 4 except in the following instances: \n-The \"TotalMalnutritionCompositeScore Eligible Denominators\" is 1 if\n---A \"Malnutrition Risk Screening\" was performed and a \"Malnutrition Screening Not At Risk Result\" was identified AND \"Hospital Dietitian Referral\" was not ordered\n---No “Malnutrition Risk Screening” was performed AND “Hospital Dietitian Referral” was not ordered \n- The \"TotalMalnutritionCompositeScore Eligible Denominators\" are 2\n---If a \"Nutrition Assessment\" was performed and a \"Nutrition Status Not or Mildly Malnourished\" was identified\n--- A \"Malnutrition Risk Screening\" was performed and a \"Malnutrition Screening Not At Risk Result\" was identified AND \"Hospital Dietitian Referral\" was not ordered\n--A \"Malnutrition Risk Screening\" was performed and a \"Malnutrition Screening At Risk Result\" was identified was ordered but the “Nutrition Assessment” was not performed \nThis eCQM is an episode-based measure. An episode is defined as each inpatient hospitalization or encounter with a length of stay of greater than or equal to 24 hours among individuals 65 years of age and older at the start of the inpatient encounter \n\nThis version of the eCQM uses QDM version 5.6.

  "rationale" : "The components of this measure are supported by clinical guidance that recommends the following  : (1) malnutrition screening for patients admitted into the acute inpatient care setting; (2)  nutrition assessment for patients identified at risk for malnutrition or with a hospital dietitian referral order to form the basis for appropriate nutrition interventions; (3) appropriate recognition, diagnosis, and documentation of the nutrition status of a patient in order to (4) address their condition with an appropriate plan of care and communicate patient needs to other care providers. \n\nThe process for risk identification, assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of malnutrition necessitates a multi-disciplinary care team that begins with the identification of an initial risk population for a more thorough assessment by the RD/RDN. The RD/RDN, in turn, provides the necessary treatment recommendations to address nutritional status utilizing a nutrition diagnosis and care plan, along with the clinical indicators that inform a medical diagnosis of malnutrition completed by a physician or eligible provider as defined by CMS. The four measure observations individually will only provide a fraction of the necessary information on quality of care for patients at risk for or with malnutrition. For example, knowing which patients have been assessed out of those who were initially identified as at risk, but not knowing if the appropriate proportion of patients were screened upon admission, would be an insufficient assessment of quality of care.\n\nImplementation of this measure supports timely malnutrition risk screening and hand off to RDNs for appropriate nutrition assessment for identified patients during the current hospitalization. For patients identified with a moderate or severe malnutrition by the nutrition assessment, best practice also recommends a medical diagnosis by a physician or other eligible clinician and the execution of the nutrition care plan by an RD/RDN. Evidence demonstrates that implementing a standardized protocol for screening, assessment, diagnosis, and care planning results in better identification of malnourished patients and subsequent improvements in rates of associated nutrition interventions. Outcomes modeling, and those reported in other studies, also demonstrate the benefits to patient outcomes, including reduced risk of 30-day readmissions, length of hospital stays, and complications, as well as improved quality of life after hospitalization.",
  "clinicalRecommendationStatement" : "American  Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (ASPEN) clinical guidelines on nutrition screening, assessment, and intervention in adults, Screening for nutrition risk is suggested for hospitalized patients. (ASPEN, 2011).\n\nThis guideline places nutrition assessment and screening in the context of intervention as part of nutrition care. Screening those individuals at risk for malnutrition is the first step in nutrition care as risk for malnutrition, identified by nutrition screening, is associated with longer length of hospital stay, complications, and mortality. Malnutrition screening is also a predictor of mortality risk. \nMalnourished patients, identified by nutrition assessment tools, have more complications and longer hospitalizations than do patients with optimal nutrition status. Such patients, identified by nutrition assessment tools, have more infectious and noninfectious complications, longer hospital length of stay, and greater mortality. \nNutrition intervention is recommended for patients identified by assessment as at risk for malnutrition or malnourished. Nutrition intervention with associated monitoring and evaluation plants in patients identified as at risk for malnutrition or malnourished improves clinical outcomes. Nutrition interventions and their associated monitoring and evaluation plans in malnourished patients are associated with improved nutrition status, nutrient intake, physical function, and quality of life. Hospital readmissions, inpatient length of stay, and complications were reduced with increased nutrition support interventions.",
