3 Welcome to 2017 HEDIS Tips Welcome to Molina s Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS ) Provider Guide and Toolkit. Developed by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA), HEDIS is a widely used set of performance measures in the managed care industry, part of NCQA accreditation and an essential tool in ensuring that our members are getting the best health care possible. Thus, it is vitally important that our providers understand the HEDIS specifications and guidelines. Our mission is to provide quality health services to financially vulnerable families and individuals covered by government programs and we want to do everything we can do to make this process as easy as possible. This guide is intended to be an easy-to-follow reference that covers all of the 2017 HEDIS pediatric measures applicable to Medicaid (Apple Health) and Marketplace. This guide includes ICD-10 codes, with ICD-9 included only as a reference. We understand that HEDIS specifications can be complex, so we have designed this guide to clearly define Molina s criteria for meeting the guidelines of the pediatric HEDIS measures. We welcome your feedback and look forward to supporting all your efforts to provide quality healthcare to our members.

6 Modifier 25: Preventative and Acute Care Services at the Same Encounter - Tips & Best Practices Background: For both preventative and acute care services to be reimbursable, all required components of both services must be performed and documented. According to the National Correct Coding Initiative (NCCI): The CPT Manual defines Modifier 25 as a significant, separately identifiable evaluation and management service by the same physician or other qualified health care professional on the same day of the procedure or other service. Modifier 25 may be appended to an evaluation and management (E/M) CPT code to indicate that the E/M is significant and separately identifiable from other services reported on the same date of service. The E/M service may be related to the same or different diagnosis as the other procedure(s). Preventative Services (CPT ) Select Preventative Service codes based on the age of the patient on the date of service, as well as whether the patient is new or established Services include an age/gender appropriate history, comprehensive examination, counseling/anticipatory guidance/risk factor interventions, and the ordering of laboratory/diagnostic procedures (Lab and diagnostic procedures are reimbursed separately.) Services also include care of a small problem or pre-existing condition that requires no extra work Acute (Sick) Care Services (CPT ) If a problem or abnormality is encountered and is significant enough to require additional work to perform the key components of a problem-orientated E/M service, then the appropriate code should be reported For New Patients: All three key components of History, Exam and Medical Decision-Making must be met or exceeded to report each particular level For Established Patients: Two out of three of the key components of History, Exam, and Medical Decision- Making must be met or exceeded to reach each level Don t double-dip! Documentation that supports elements of the Preventative Services may not contribute to the elements and level of the Acute Care Service Please refer to your CPT Manual for further E/M level specifics Diagnosis Codes Must Match Be sure you report preventative care diagnoses codes with preventative care CPT codes. Problem-focused diagnosis codes should correspond to problem-focused or sick visits reported with Clinical Examples: A patient presents for a sprained ankle and the physician orders ankle x-rays. On the EMR health maintenance screen, an alert indicates the patient is due for their well visit. The well visit can be conducted with the exam of the sprained ankle as long as the documentation supports an E/M. A with Modifier 25 is reported in addition to appropriately. A patient presents for a well child checkup/preventative visit. During the exam, it is noted the child has minor diaper rash. The physician encourages the mother to change her diaper more frequently. It would not be 5

7 appropriate to report a problem-orientated E/M visit in addition to the preventative service, as the findings of diaper rash were trivial and incidental. Suggestions: As a best practice, educate the member about Preventative Health Exams and Sick Exams. Provide patients with an educational flyer about what occurs in a well exam. A notice can also be used to explain the office visit policy for preventative and sick exams and the reasons for it. It should be sent to patients along with confirmation of their preventative appointment or presented to them when they check in. The policy should also be explained in the information about the practice that you send to patients prior to their first appointment. Involve your scheduling staff. Any patient requesting to schedule a preventative service should be asked if he or she wishes to discuss any other health problems with the doctor. If the patient does not want to discuss other problems and the health problem may be considered insignificant, the scheduler can ask the patient to come in for a problem-orientated visit first and the preventative service at a later date. Encourage the patient to schedule both visits. If the patient indicates that he or she has no health problems to discuss with the doctor, the scheduler should let the patient know that if a health problem arises that another visit may be necessary.

21 HEDIS TIPS: CHILDHOOD IMMUNIZATION STATUS (CIS) Use the state immunization registry to keep up to date with state immunization If possible, use a tickler system to remind providers that immunizations are due Recommend immunizations to parents. Parents are more likely to agree with vaccinations when supported by the provider. Address common misconceptions about vaccinations, e.g. MMR causes autism (now completely disproven). If the parents refuse immunizations, document clearly in chart note Complete a blood lead level screening before the age of 2. Document date and results. Some vaccines may have been given before patients were Molina members. Include these on the members vaccination record even if your office did not provide the vaccine. Code appropriately using the above codes as guidelines Refer to the Clinical Practice Guideline (CPG) for Immunizations (within Preventative Services for Children and Adolescents) at: Children-Adolescents.pdf Molina Healthcare offers a member health incentive program for Childhood Immunizations.
