## Resource Profile: US Quality Core Communication Not Done

Official URL: http://fhir.org/guides/astp/us-quality-core/StructureDefinition/us-quality-core-communicationnotdone | Version: 0.1.0
Active as of 2023-08-01 | Computable Name: USQualityCoreCommunicationNotDone

Profile of CommunicationNotDone for decision support/quality metrics. Defines the core set of elements and extensions for quality rule and measure authors.

Usage

See the patterns page for implementation and usage patterns.

The Communication and CommunicationNotDone profiles represent the positive and negative statements for a communication event.

### Examples

Negation Example using a single coded concept | Communication of finding of Macular Edema absent not done because patient moved away.

This example meets measure intent for exclusion as defined in the following example CQL:

    [CommunicationNotDone: "Macular edema absent (finding)"] MacularEdemaAbsentNotCommunicated
      with "Diabetic Retinopathy Encounter" EncounterDiabeticRetinopathy
        such that MacularEdemaAbsentNotCommunicated.sent during EncounterDiabeticRetinopathy.period
          and ( MacularEdemaAbsentNotCommunicated.statusReason in "Medical Reason"
            or MacularEdemaAbsentNotCommunicated.statusReason in "Patient Reason"
          )

​For a more complete discussion of representation of negation within US Quality Core and quality improvement artifacts, see the Negation in US Quality Core topic.
