24 Core Measures Three stages of progress…. We’re attempting to report on an additional 8 of the 24 core measures using paid claims. Working with DMA, SCHS and Vital Records to capture the remaining eight measures. We’re currently reporting on 8 of the 24 core measures requested by CMS through the IC. Potential roadblocks… • The identification of current sources for PICU/NICU data • CAHPS is only reported once every three years • Transition from old to new systems makes data collection problematic..immunizations and birth certificate data • It’s difficult to identify CHIP recipients in the claims system
