*Risk Assessment or Counseling for Sexual Activity.

The practice uses patient information, clinical data and evidence-based guidelines to generate lists of patients and to proactively remind patients/families and clinicians of services needed for:

PCMH 2.D.1 At least three different preventive care services

For patients overdue for well visits, choose an age group to focus on depending on where there is opportunity for improvement. For example, many practices see a decline in well visit rates for kids between the ages of 7 and 11. Your PCC Dashboard is the easiest place to find this data - look under "Clinical Conditions -> % of Patients Up-to-Date on Well Visits".

You can also use the PCC Recaller to further restrict or identify those who need well visits. The recaller can also restrict by primary care provider to report these measures for individual provider which something that needs to be done for PCMH element 6E.

2.D.2 At least three different chronic or acute care services

Here are some examples of chronic care services that you may want to choose from depending on what's most important to your practice.

Examples of using the recaller and Dashboard for generating lists and reminding patients of chronic care services Chronic care reporting examples PCC 07/07/14
ADD/ADHD patients overdue for checkup. A % of patients overdue and a listing of overdue patients is available in the Dashboard. Patients diagnosed with ADD (314.00) or ADHD (314.01) in the past three years are included. They are considered overdue if they have not been seen (for any visit type) in the past six months. You can also get this information from recaller where you can also restrict by primary care provider to report these measures for individual provider which something that needs to be done for PCMH element 6E.

2.D.3 Patients not recently seen by the practice

To identify patients who may have been overlooked and are in need of services, you would use the Partner recaller report to generate a list of patients who you haven't seen in a while. Use restriction of "Patient Last Visit Date"

2.D.4 Specific medications

You could use the "Patient Lists" functionality in PCC EHR to generate a list of patients given certain medications. This could be used to:

  • Manage patients who were prescribed medications with potentially harmful side effects
  • Identify patients who would have been prescribed a certain brand name drug versus a generic
  • Notify patients about a medication recall
