141. Primary Open-Angle Glaucoma (POAG): Reduction of Intraocular Pressure (IOP) by 15% or Documentation of a Plan of Care

Percentage of patients aged 18 years and older with a diagnosis of primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) whose glaucoma treatment has not failed (the most recent IOP was reduced by at least 15% from the preintervention level) or if the most recent IOP was not reduced by at least 15% from the preintervention level, a plan of care was documented within the 12-month performance period. This is an outcome measure.

This measure is to be reported a minimum of once per performance period for glaucoma patients seen during the performance reporting. It is anticipated that eligible clinicians who provide the primary management of patients with POAG will submit this measure.
