Create Value Sets

How to Create, Save, and Edit Value Sets

The following tutorial supports any Authors who need to create value sets as well as the measure developers and value set developers for the annual updates of the electronic Clinical Quality Measure (eCQM) value sets. This tutorial is useful for other purposes as well, beyond the eCQM value set annual updates.

Before you can create value sets, you need VSAC Authoring Permissions. It is helpful to understand the the roles of value set authors and stewards. NLM expects all authors and stewards to review the VSAC Authoring Best Practices.
