EHR Measure Scores 20.97 Eye 39.11 A1c Reminder: Customer Service and Claim based Measure Scores pending 35.48 Eye 20.56 A1c 2

Abstraction concerns Many patients failed CARE-3 (ACO-39): Documentation of Current Medications in the Medical Record (49.41%) Most commonly due to lack of Route of Administration details Also many prescriptions missing dose and frequency information A similar measure replaces this for 2017 but still uses definition of a current reconciled medications list “The medication list should include all medications (prescriptions, overthe-counter, herbals, supplements, etc.) with dose, frequency, route, and reason for taking it. It is also important to verify whether the patient is actually taking the medication as prescribed or instructed, as sometimes this is not the case. “ 3

Abstraction concerns Patients are failing PREV-9 (ACO-16): BMI Screening and follow-up (82.3%) Different parameters based on age: EHR may not alert differently for 65 Age 65 and older BMI 23 and 30 Age 18-64 BMI 18.5 and 25 Many elderly patients are underweight per these parameters and are not receiving plans Others are receiving plans to eat fewer calories, low salt, low fat, etc.- this would count on a report but may be a concern for appropriateness 4

Abstraction concerns Patients are failing or being excluded from MH-1 (ACO-40) at very high rates: Depression Remission at 12 months (6.7%) Not the Depression Screening measure Denominator: Age 18 with dx of major depression or dysthymia AND an initial PHQ-9 score 9 during the encounter Numerator: Who achieved remission at 12 months as demonstrated by a twelve month ( /- 30 days) PHQ-9 score of less than 5 Denominator exclusions: permanent nursing home residents, , dx of bipolar, dx of personality disorder 5
