Meeting Minutes
- Roll call and agenda review
- Secondary use of CDAs from provider EHR or from local-to-provider HIEs for Reporting Quality Measure Information - Attachments Workgroup invited for presentation [Wendy Talbot (NCQA] - NCQA Audit Supplemental Data Presentation
Questions addressed by the presentation:
- What is role of primary and supplemental data for quality reporting under HEDIS?
- What is the NCQA audit process?
- Why is a C-CDA considered supplemental and how are payers & ACOs audited
- What is the current and planned NCQA approach for “validating HIE data feeds” with C-CDA in 2019
- See slide deck provided by Wendy Talbot. The primary issue is the need to validate the original source of information. Once a reviewer/auditor has reviewed a specific source, the information can be considered "standard" when checked in subsequent years. If 2 sources are using the same EHR, can the answer work for two different providers. The requirement is to assure the data are coming from the right place within the program. The effort is to assure NCQA is receiving the information expected (provenance, correct fields, etc.). Without validation back to the source causes challenges with reliability and validity of data. Claims are also validated, not just C-CDAs. To avoid receiving information about ordered procedures Vs completed procedures, QDM and/or FHIR profiles can increase eCQM specificity that may help with the need to audit in the future. The auditors also work with plans and vendors to address issues identified.
- Some health plans capture a lot of information, not only those required for specific measured. Therefore, all the information is passed through a C-CDA.
- C-CDA provenance not necessarily included in files. C-CDA elements allow author, performer, dateTime, recorder but these are not necessarily shared at the data level.
- Sharing of the logs of issues found by NCQA auditors would help with standards reviews. These issues can be shared at the Implementation-a-thon.
- Provenance is not the major problem, it is more an issue of building C-CDAs. Feedback will be very helpful to encourage better implementations. The C-CDA scorecard will not be sufficient. The Examples Task Force provides another path to provide standard examples. C-CDA Scorecard
- NCQA meets with the auditors next week and will bring information for discussion at the San Antonio WGM. The Examples Task Force is also meeting Saturday Evening 1/12/2019 as another venue for reviewing the issues identified.
