	~~NCQA says that measuring adherence~~ to ~~agreements (~~PCMH ~~5, Element B) may~~ be used to meet the factor.		* As it is related to medication reconciliation for care transitions, the measure defined within [http://pcmh.pcc.com/index.php/2014_-_PCMH4C#4.C.1_Reviews_and_reconciles_medications_for_more_than_50_percent_of_patients_received_from_care_transitions._.28CRITICAL_FACTOR.29 PCMH factor 4C.1] can be used as one care coordination measure:

			'''Reviews and reconciles medications for more than 50 percent of patients received from care transitions.'''

			This can be reported from the "Medication Reconciliation" measure within the "Modified Stage 2" Meaningful Use report in the EHR. You need to meet the 50%
			threshold to get credit for factor 4C.1, but for 6B.1 documentation you just need to show a numerator, denominator, and time period used for the measure.
			You don't need to meet the 50% threshold to get credit for 6B.1

	~~NQF also has provided these examples~~ of care ~~coordination measures relevant~~ to ~~pediatrics:~~		* Another care coordination measure that could be used for 6B.1 is defined within PCMH factor 5B.7:

			"Has the capacity for electronic exchange of key clinical information+ and provides an electronic summary of care record to another provider for more than 50 percent of referrals."

			This is reported as the "Summary of Care (Transmitted Only)" measure on the modified stage 2 MU report. Again, to use this and get credit for 6B.1 you only need to define a numerator, denominator, and time period used for the measure.

	* Reconciled medication list received by discharged patients (inpatient discharge to home/self-care or any other site of care).		* For multi-location practices, you do need to report these measures individually by location. Each of your providers should be attributed to a single "home location" and you can then run the MU reports mentioned above filtering by individual providers attributed to each location.
	* Transition record, with specified elements received by discharged patients (inpatient discharge to home/self-care or any other site of care).
