Any coded response (i.e., any non-null response—positive or negative) on a pre-specified instrument for food, housing and transportation counts for completed screening numerators (numerators 1, 3, 5). The PRAPARE Food Insecurity Instrument question (LOINC code 93031-3) is an exception. Based on how the question is structured and responses are coded, a “No” or “None of the above” response cannot be coded and must be left null. Therefore, a null response meets criteria for this item only.
