QPP Measure #USWR22

Patient Reported Nutritional Assessment in Patients with Wounds and Ulcers

The percentage of patients aged 18 years and older with a diagnosis of a wound or ulcer of any type who self-report nutritional screening with a validated tool (such as the Self-MNA by Nestlé) within the 12-month reporting period. Using the Self-MNA by Nestlé, if a patient at risk of malnutrition has an MNA score of 8-11 and documented weight loss, the clinician should subsequently create a follow up plan (e.g. diet enhancement and oral supplementation of 400 kcal/d2), close weight monitoring, and a more in depth nutrition assessment. Malnourished patients with scores of 0-7 would be offered treatment with nutritional intervention (ONS 400-600 kcal/d2 and diet enhancement), close weight monitoring and a more in depth nutrition assessment. No specific products will be recommended as part of the measure. A follow up plan is documented during the encounter from the patient reported nutritional assessment.
