PQRI measure 110

The measure is Preventive Care and Screening: Influenza Immunization for patients > 50 yrs old. This measure is to be reported a minimum of once per reporting period (I report through the 12 month calendar year) and the flu season is September through February. Do I report again when the year changes in January if I already reported between September and December?

Yes

You found a confusing one to report! If the patient got his flu shot in November, 2009 and you see them now, in January, 2010 for HTN, you can report that the patient had the flu shot. You are now done reporting on that patient for 2010. And when they return in November, 2010 for their next flu shot, you do nothing.

Or you could not report on them now and wait until flu season returns to start reporting but you would risk missing the 80% mark so I would discourage this option.
