Expansion based on codesystem Measure Aggregate Method Codes v4.0.0 (CodeSystem)
Code | System | Display | Definition | Aggregate Method mapping |
sum | http://hl7.org/fhir/us/cqfmeasures/CodeSystem/aggregate-method | Sum | The measure score is determined by adding together the observations derived from the measure population. | ~SUM |
average | http://hl7.org/fhir/us/cqfmeasures/CodeSystem/aggregate-method | Average | The measure score is determined by taking the average of the observations derived from the measure population. | ~AVERAGE |
median | http://hl7.org/fhir/us/cqfmeasures/CodeSystem/aggregate-method | Median | The measure score is determined by taking the median of the observations derived from the measure population. | ~MEDIAN |
minimum | http://hl7.org/fhir/us/cqfmeasures/CodeSystem/aggregate-method | Minimum | The measure score is determined by taking the minimum of the observations derived from the measure population. | ~MIN |
maximum | http://hl7.org/fhir/us/cqfmeasures/CodeSystem/aggregate-method | Maximum | The measure score is determined by taking the maximum of the observations derived from the measure population. | ~MAX |
count | http://hl7.org/fhir/us/cqfmeasures/CodeSystem/aggregate-method | Count | The measure score is determined as the number of observations derived from the measure population. | ~COUNT |
Explanation of the columns that may appear on this page:
Level | A few code lists that FHIR defines are hierarchical - each code is assigned a level. In this scheme, some codes are under other codes, and imply that the code they are under also applies |
System | The source of the definition of the code (when the value set draws in codes defined elsewhere) |
Code | The code (used as the code in the resource instance) |
Display | The display (used in the display element of a Coding). If there is no display, implementers should not simply display the code, but map the concept into their application |
Definition | An explanation of the meaning of the concept |
