10.15.2013 Identification of Alcohol and Other Drug Services On page 298 of HEDIS 2014 Volume 2, in the Outpatient and ED section, the 5th bullet states "where the organization can confirm that the visit was in an intensive outpatient or partial hospitalization setting (POS 53 is not specific to setting)." Should the language be changed to reference an "outpatient" setting?

Yes. The language should read, "where the organization can confirm that the visit was in an outpatient setting (POS 53 is not specific to setting)." The intent is to include only codes where the organization can confirm that the visit was in an outpatient setting.
