This section explains the SNOMED and Value Set fields included in nursing order setup. All three of these may be added to a nursing order for Quality Measures (eCQM) purposes.

 

CQM Setup for Nursing Orders

 

 

•Negation SNOMED: Allows a Negation reason to be entered for the nursing order. Select the appropriate Negation SNOMED code from the drop-down list. These codes include Contraindicated, Treatment not indicated, Refused, and Not indicated. These Negation codes may apply to Nursing Orders where "Patient Refused" is selected during documentation on a nursing order.

 

•Reference SNOMED: Allows for a particular SNOMED code to be attached to a nursing order. Reference SNOMED allows the user to enter a SNOMED for a VTE Prophylaxis device.

 

•Value Set: Allows a Value Set to be attached or removed from a Nursing Order. To attach a Value Set, select the lookup (magnifying glass) icon, locate the appropriate option, and double-click to select it. Once a Value Set is attached, select the red "x" to the left of it within the field to remove it.

 

NOTE: Nursing order descriptions that contain underscores cannot have these codes attached. Also, when placing a nursing order that has a SNOMED or Value Set attached, users will not be able to change the nursing order description during the Order Entry process.
