Definition of Terms & Additional Information
Patient-Specific Education Resources Identified by CEHRT – Resources or a topic area of resources identified through logic built into CEHRT which evaluates information about the patient and suggests education resources that would be of value to the patient.
Unique Patient – If a patient is seen by a MIPS eligible clinician more than once during the performance period, then for purposes of measurement, that patient is only counted once in the denominator for the measure. All the measures relying on the term ‘‘unique patient’’ relate to what is contained in the patient’s medical record. Not all of this information will need to be updated or even be needed by the provider at every patient encounter. This is especially true for patients whose encounter frequency is such that they would see the same provider multiple times in the same performance period.
