Quality Measure STU2 for FHIR R4 Implementation Guide
This page is part of the Quality Measure STU2 for FHIR R4 Implementation Guide (v2.0.0: STU 2) based on FHIR R4. The current version which supercedes this version is 3.0.0. For a full list of available versions, see the Directory of published versions 
To support flexible representation and packaging of measure and library artifacts for different use cases, this implementation guide uses four general categories of profiles, aligned with the knowledge capabilities established by the CPG-on-FHIR implementation guide:
| Artifact | Shareable | Computable | Publishable | Executable |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Library | CQFMLibrary | CQFMComputableLibrary | CQFMPublishableLibrary | CQFMExecutableLibrary |
| Measure | CQFMMeasure | N/A | CQFMPublishableMeasure | N/A |
In addition, measures are required to conform to the appropriate measure profile based on their scoring type:
| Scoring Type | Profile |
|---|---|
| Cohort | CQFMCohortMeasure |
| Proportion | CQFMProportionMeasure |
| Ratio | CQFMRatioMeasure |
| Continuous Variable | CQFMContinuousVariableMeasure |
To support packaging, testing, and distribution of measure and library artifacts, this implementation guide defines the following additional profiles:
| Profile | Description |
|---|---|
| CQFMDevice | A software device used in the creation, validation, evaluation, packaging, and/or testing of a library or measure artifact. |
| CQFMLibraryBundle | A bundle used to package a library artifact for distribution. |
| CQFMLibraryMeasure | A bundle used to package a measure artifact for distribution. |
| CQFMQualityProgram | A library profile used to establish a set of related quality improvement artifacts such as a measure program. |
| CQFMTestCaseBundle | A bundle used to package a test case for distribution. |
