You may want to focus on measuring assessment or counseling for tobacco or alcohol/substance use since there are specific CPT codes (99406-99409) that can be used for these. Using these CPT codes will allow recaller to capture a count and list of patients who may be overdue for this particular assessment. Note that there is also a "Tobacco Counseling" CQM report in the EHR which will provide a %, but that report does not provide a *listing* of patients who did not get the counseling. | |||

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

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"
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
