HNC Comments II to CMS on GMCS MUC

The Healthcare Nutrition Council
(HNC) supports CMS’ recognition of the impact of malnutrition health
outcomes for adult patients of all ages. Thus, as we have previously commented we support expanding
the ages (from 65 years and older to 18 years and older) for the Measure Under Consideration (MUC)
MUC2023-114 “Global Malnutrition Composite Score” (GMSC) and the expanded measure’s inclusion in
the Hospital Inpatient Quality Reporting Program (Hospital IQR Program) and the Promoting
Interoperability Program (PI) set.
