Announcing the 2010 P4P Program!
We are excited and pleased to continue to extend the opportunity for our providers to participate in our Pay for Performance (P4P) program for 2010. The P4P program is focused on providing financial recognition to clinic systems that exhibit superior or improved performance.
In 2010, changes to the P4P program include:
- Expansion of the program to include Wisconsin providers.
- Revised payment rates for some measures.
- New measure and payment methodology for complete Child and Teen Check-ups (C&TCs).
- Tobacco cessation and aspirin therapy include in lab submission measures.
- Revised age range for colorectal cancer screening.
- A new secure web site for accessing action lists and uploading lab data.
With the transition to the new secure web site, UCare requires all clinics or care systems to submit an Action List Request Form (located on the second page of the intro letter), even if the clinic or care system has registered in the past. We are now accepting registration forms and it is due no later than 1/15/10, if your clinic/care system would like to continue receiving action lists.
