1 PERSISTENCE OF BETA BLOCKER TREATMENT AFTER A HEART ATTACK APPLICATIONS OBJECTIVE Purpose of Measure: ELIGIBLE POPULATION Which members are included? HEDIS (Administrative) NCQA Accreditation (Medicare only) NCQA Rating (Medicare only) To identify members who were hospitalized and discharged from July 1st of the year prior to the measurement year to June 30th of the measurement year with a diagnosis of AMI and who received persistent beta-blocker treatment for six (6) months after discharge. Members 18 years and older as of December 31 of the measurement year. STANDARD OF CARE Beta-blockers should be prescribed for at least six (6) months following acute myocardial infarction. NCQA ACCEPTED Please see code table. CODES: DOCUMENTATION REQUIREMENTS What documentation should be submitted? REFERENCES Table PBH-B: Beta-Blocker Medications* Description Prescription Noncardioselective beta-blockers Cardioselective beta-blockers Antihypertensive combinations Carvedilol Labetalol Nadolol Penbutolol Pindolol Betaxolol Bisoprolol Acebutolol Atenolol Atenolol-chlorthalidone Bendroflumethiazidenadolol Bisoprololhydrochlorothiazide Propranolol Timolol Sotalol Metoprolol Nebivolol Hydrochlorothiazidemetoprolol Hydrochlorothiazidepropranolol Documentation should include date of service, date of diagnosis of AMI, and clear evidence that Betablocker was prescribed (medication list containing beta-blocker and the date it was prescribed, note indicating the name of the beta-blocker and the date it was prescribed, or a copy of the prescription that was given to the member).
