MiPCT Multi-Payer Summary Billing Documents

Bubble Charts Data from G and CPT code reports The charts highlight three factors: ▫Breadth (How many members are seen) ▫Depth (How many visits per member) ▫Consistency (Degree to which practices are similar within a PO)
20
Depth, Breadth and Consistency The charts highlight three factors: ▫Breadth (How many members are seen) % Eligible Members Engaged in Care Management ▫Depth (How many visits per member) # Care Management Claims per Engaged Member ▫Consistency (Degree to which practices are similar within a PO) Standard deviation of breadth calculation above among practices in PO
21
Breadth Breadth (How many patients are seen) % Eligible Members Engaged in Care Management Total Members Engaged in Care Management (since April 2012)/Eligible Members (most recent month) POs to the right have achieved the most breadth, or have had the largest reach among eligible members
22
Depth Depth (How many visits per member) # Care Management Claims per Engaged Member Total # of Care Management Claims/Eligible Members (most recent month) POs at the top of the graph have achieved the most depth, or have had the highest number of visits per members
23
Consistency Consistency (Degree to which practices are similar within a PO) Standard deviation among all MiPCT practices within the PO % Eligible Members Engaged in Care Management Small bubble = more consistent, Large bubble = less consistent Type of organization will also impact consistency (independent IPA vs. PHO, etc.)
