| DESCRIPTION | Compliance reporting measures the LDL completed within 2 years as defined to roll up LDL compliance totals for a subgroup of IHD patients. This reminder identifies IHD patients with a documented ICD-9 code 412.nn in the last five years who have not had a serum lipid panel/LDL (calculated or direct lab package LDL or documented outside LDL) within the last two years. If a more recent record of an UNCONFIRMED IHD DIAGNOSIS is found, the reminder will not be applicable to the patient. by the VA External Peer Review Program (EPRP) performance measure and the maximum guideline recommended below: The VHA/DOD Clinical Practice Guideline for Management of Dyslipidemia recommends that patients with Ischemic Heart Disease have a lipid profile/LDL every one to two years; and that patients taking lipid lowering medications have a lipid profile/LDL at least every year. This national IHD 412 Lipid Profile Reporting reminder is used monthly |

No mapping necessary. Use the VA-ISCHEMIC HEART 412
The Associated Facility for each patient is based on the following
criteria:
1) Use the primary care facility assigned to the patient
2) If more than one primary care facility is assigned or no
primary care facility is assigned, then find which facility has
the most visits on the local VistA system in the last two years.
3) If the count of the number of visits is the same for multiple
facilities, use the facility associated with the most recent
visit between the tied facilities.

Reporting roll up will send totals for this reminder and facility for:
1) Reminder totals based on reminder evaluation:
applicable, not applicable, due, not due totals
2) Finding totals for most recent counts from the group of LDL
findings, based on Lab or Outside LDL findings:
LDL <100
LDL 100-119
LDL 120-129
LDL >129
OUTSIDE LDL <100
OUTSIDE LDL 100-119
OUTSIDE LDL 120-129

National Roll-up:
The national reporting criteria for VA-IHD QUERI are defined in the
Reminder Extract Parameter file.
This national reminder is used by the VA-IHD QUERI Extract run monthly
to roll up compliance totals for LDL laboratory tests completed within
the past 2 years. The patients evaluated for compliance are based on VA
EPRP performance measure reporting criteria. The performance measure
reporting criteria are used to create patient lists. The patient
lists used with this reminder are found in the Reminder Patient List
file with the following naming conventions:
VA-*IHD QUERI yyyy Mnn 412 PTS WITH QUALIFY AND ANCHOR VISIT
VA-*IHD QUERI yyyy Mnn 412 PTS WITH QUALIFY AND ANCHOR VISIT ON
LLA MEDS
where yyyy is the calendar year, and nn is the month.
1. Use the Reminder Term options to map local representations of
The patient lists are based on two different Extract Finding Rule Sets:
VA-*IHD QUERI 412 PTS WITH QUALIFY AND ANCHOR VISIT
VA-*IHD QUERI 412 PTS WITH QUALIFY AND ANCHOR VISIT ON LLA MEDS
The rule sets will find IHD patients of record within 5 years prior to
the beginning of the monthly reporting period who had a qualifying
clinic visit and an earlier (anchor) visit 13-24 months prior to the
reporting period. The patient list with ON LLA MEDS finds those patients
who have had a supply of Lipid Lowering Agent Medications in VistA during
the reporting period.
findings:
Rules for building the patient list for the reporting patient
denominator are:
Rule 1: IHD patients with ICD-9 code 412
Start with Patients with an ICD-9 412.nn diagnosis documented
within 5 years prior to the beginning of the reporting period.
Rule 2: Qualifying Visit
Find the subset of patients, from rule 1, who have a Qualifying
Visit during the one-month reporting period.
Qualifying Clinic Codes include:
Primary Care: 301 (General Internal Medicine), 322 (Women), 323
(Primary Care/Medicine), 350 (Geriatric), 531 and
563 (Mental Health Primary Care)
Specialty Care: 303 (Cardiology), 305 (Endocrinology/ Metabolism),
306 (Diabetes), 309 (Hypertension), 312
(Pulmonary/Chest)
Include patients that had a Qualifying Visit during the
reporting period and subsequently died before or after the
reporting period.
IHD 412 DIAGNOSIS
Rule 3: Exclude patients from the patient subset resulting from
Rule 2 that have a primary discharge diagnosis of 410.nn within
60 days of the Qualifying Visit.
Rule 4: Anchor Visit
Find the subset of patients, after rule 3, with an Anchor
Visit 13-24 months prior to the beginning of the reporting period
Use the same clinic codes used for the Qualifying Visit in Rule 2.
Rule 5: Associated facility
The subset of patients resulting from the rules above are assigned
an associated facility that is used to accumulate national counts.
