      Measure observations are not criteria in that they don't filter the population, they calculate results for each member of the population.

      The difference is important when authoring because the context is different, and authoring tools need to be able to determine when to provide the appropriate context.

      However, the discussion will be expanded to make this need more clear.

      Existing Wording: G.7.1.2.3. "Measure observations are not population criteria in that they do not determine whether or not a patient is to be counted in a measure."

      Comment:

      This differentiation is unecessarily complex. Measure observations define computations to be performed on measure populations. They are not a unique population, but they do include population 'criteria.' I have not seen the definition provided in past and question its value. Also question where measure observations would be specified, if not in the population criteria as they are currently.

      Summary:

      Modify section G.7.1.2.3 discussion concerning Measure Observations.
