4 WellPoint P4P Physician Quality Measures Posting Book 1 1 Introduction The quality measurement of physicians is based on identifying evidence-based care, using computer algorithms to identify patients who meet the requirements of each measure. This document describes each of the measures that Resolution Health, Inc. currently uses for its physician quality profiling (PQP) activities. For each quality of care measure, the following information is provided: Measure Title This title is used when reporting measure results for providers and plans. Measure Description The measure description provides the overall purpose of the measure. and The numerator is the number of measure-eligible patients whose care appears to be consistent with evidence-based guidelines, according to the available claims data. The denominator is the number of patients eligible for the measure (i.e., the patients who have the relevant condition, or take the relevant drug, or have the relevant age/gender demographic, etc.). Applicable Specialties Resolution Health maps applicable (relevant) clinical specialties to each measure, and attributes each patient s care to the provider (1) who has a specialty mapped to the measure, and (2) who is considered a primary specialist for the patient. A patient s primary specialist is the physician within a given specialty who provides the most ambulatory care services to the patient (as identified using the member s prescription claims and medical claims for office visits during the most recent 18 months). Measure Citation The measure citation displays the organization (e.g., American Heart Association) that developed the clinical practice guideline upon which the quality measure is based, as well as citations to key publications related to the measure and a note as to whether the measure is programmed according to NCQA/HEDIS measure technical specifications.
