CARE-1 Able to delete discharge dates

[Christopher Anderson]

When working through the CARE-1 measure through the api, I believe I found an issue where if you allows you to submit a null for

this discharge date in the api. Afterwards, when uploading the submissions it gives an error that the discharge date cannot be

changed or updated.

{

"status": "INCOMPLETE",

"name": "CARE-1",

"submissions": [

{

"attribute": "discharge-date",

"value": "2018-09-01",

"scope": "2018-09-01",

}

and the response will be this

{

"status": "INCOMPLETE",

"name": "CARE-1",

"submissions": []

}

This is also causing the discharge date to be deleted from CMS and no longer showing in QPP.

This is also causing us to lose the ability to submit for the discharge in subsequent requests.

Is there another way to patch the discharge-dates back to CMS or reset the submission?
