Throughout this evolution, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services have been at the forefront of the development and provision of quality measures for health care in a variety of settings, including acute care. Quality initiatives aid in the evaluation of patient care to encourage quality improvement efforts, determine pay-for-performance rates, and help patients and consumers evaluate their care providers. The addition of the Global Malnutrition Composite Score as an electronic Clinical Quality Measure in 2022 highlights the key role nutrition plays in outcomes and quality of hospitalized patients. With this, credentialed nutrition and dietetics practitioners lie front and center for the development of quality improvement processes to help promote high quality standards of nutrition care, improve length of stay, and reduce health care costs and readmissions while addressing malnutrition, health equity, and nutrition care as a human right. As the Global Malnutrition Composite Score steward, it is the obligation of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics and the Commission on Dietetic Registration to promote the measure and support credentialed nutrition and dietetics practitioners in advocating for the implementation of this measure. Therefore, the purpose of this practice update is to provide necessary information to credentialed nutrition and dietetics practitioners and other health care leaders related to the history and implementation of the Global Malnutrition Composite Score, along with relevant updates to the measure and practice implications. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
