  2. Presentation Overview • Performance Measure Validation a. Process b. Findings and Recommendations c. Questions • HEDIS Results • Results and Recommendations by Dimension of Care • 2008 HEDIS Changes • Questions

  3. Performance Measure Validation Objectives • Evaluate accuracy of data collected • Determine the extent to which each measure calculated followed established specifications • Utilize process consistent with CMS protocol

  4. Validation Activities • NCQA-licensed audit organization • Pre-on-site call/meeting • BAT review • AHCA-specific measure set validation • Source code/certified software review • Primary source review • Convenience sample validation (if applicable) • Medical Record Review • Health Plan Quality Indicator Data File Review

  5. Validation Activities Findings • Used a certified software vendor: • 10 out of 12 HMOs • Convenience sample validation: • 4 HMOs had a convenience sample • 3 HMOs were exempt • Was not specified in final audit report whether one was required or performed for 5 HMOs • Medical record review validation • 11 HMOs • 1 HMO did not use the hybrid method • All other validation activities were fulfilled

  6. Audit Findings • R = Report • Reportable rate or numeric result for HEDIS measures • NA = Not Applicable • The HMO followed the specifications but the denominator was too small to report a valid rate (<30) • NB = No Benefit • The HMO did not offer the health benefits required by the measure • NR = Not Report • The HMO calculated the measure but the rate was materially biased or the HMO chose not to report the measure

  7. Audit Findings • Breast Cancer Screening • 42-51 Years • R = 10 HMOs • NA = 2 HMOs • 52-69 Years • R = 10 HMOs • NA = 2 HMOs • Combined • R = 10 HMOs • NA = 2 HMOs • Timeliness of Prenatal Care • R = 11 HMOs • NR = 1 HMO

  12. IS Standards • IS 1.0—Sound Coding Methods for Medical Data • IS 2.0—Data Capture, Transfer, & Entry—Medical Data • IS 3.0—Data Capture, Transfer, and Entry—Membership Data • IS 4.0—Data Capture, Transfer, and Entry—Practitioner Data • IS 5.0—Data Integration Required to Meet the Demands of Accurate HEDIS Reporting • IS 6.0—Control Procedures that Support HEDIS Reporting Integrity

  13. IS 1.0—Sound Coding Methods for Medical DataFindings IS 1.0 Issues – Two HMOs received a substantially compliant on this standard because they were not capturing CPT II codes and internal audits of claims examiners was not sufficient. FC=Fully Compliant SC=Substantially Compliant NR=Not Report

  14. IS 2.0—Data Capture, Transfer, & Entry—Medical DataFindings IS 2.0 Issues – Three HMOs received a substantially compliant on this standard due to issues with data entry processes and data transmissions. Two HMOs received a not report for this standard due to problems identified with their medical record process. FC=Fully Compliant SC=Substantially Compliant NR=Not Report

  15. IS 3.0—Data Capture, Transfer, and Entry—Membership DataFindings IS 3.0 Issues – One HMO received a substantially compliant on this standard because there were no policies and procedures in place for receiving Medicaid enrollment files. FC=Fully Compliant SC=Substantially Compliant NR=Not Report

  16. IS 4.0—Data Capture, Transfer, and Entry—Practitioner DataFindings IS 4.0 Issues - No issues, all HMOs were fully compliant with this standard. FC=Fully Compliant SC=Substantially Compliant NR=Not Report

  17. IS 5.0—Data Integration Required to Meet the Demands of Accurate HEDIS Reporting Findings IS 5.0 Issues - No issues, all HMOs were fully compliant with this standard. FC=Fully Compliant SC=Substantially Compliant NR=Not Report

  18. IS 6.0—Control Procedures that Support HEDIS Reporting IntegrityFindings IS 6.0 Issues – One HMO received a substantially compliant on this standard because NCQA specifications were not followed for sample size production and over-sample percentages. FC=Fully Compliant SC=Substantially Compliant NR=Not Report

  19. Recommendations—HMOs • Monitor all vendors who are contracted to work with data; specifically medical record vendors • Develop and implement policies and procedure for data entry validation, regardless of the amount of manual data entry performed • Develop procedures to ensure all data files are consistent and accurate

  20. Recommendations—AHCA • Require a predetermined file layout for submitting data • Consider using the NCQA IDSS data submission tool • Have HMOs submit Final Audit reports and Audit Designation reports to AHCA as soon as they receive them to eliminate confusion in the reporting process • Have auditors validate the actual data files being submitted to AHCA
