Elective criterion KM 07 goes beyond providing the percentage of patients with social determinants of health documented in the medical record; the report should include the breakdown by social determinant(s) so the practice understands which social determinants impact their patients to better implement appropriate care interventions. The intent of elective criterion is for the practice to show how it monitors social determinants of health at the population level for its patient population and also how it uses that data to address and assist in overcoming those social determinants of health. Reports may be generated from data collected in KM 02 G.
