Every patient aged 18-85 with a diagnosis of hypertension during the measurement year should have a controlled blood pressure reading documented.
Controlling high blood pressure is an important step in preventing heart attacks, stroke and kidney disease, and in reducing the risk of developing other serious conditions. Control is being defined as: Systolic <140 and Diastolic <90.
This metric will be weighted heavily in the Clinical Quality Metrics for commercial and Medicare populations.
