Primary Care Performance Metrics

Since early 2007, MVP has shared health care performance information with our members via the MVP website. Public information about health care quality is important and can be used in making personal health care decisions. The personal responsibility you take for your health care, and the partnership established with your primary care physician, are essential for top performance to be realized.

 

In comparing data across medical groups, please consider that variations in patient conditions and severity may be a factor in reported performance.

 

Each medical group’s performance is compared to MVP HMO averages and MVP goals. If there is more than one physician in the same medical group, their scores were combined and reported under the medical group name. Please choose from one of the specialty links below to see more detail on Primary Care Performance information.

 

In an effort to ensure data that is statistically sound, we report on as many occurrences as possible based on the physician’s panel size. Some measures are obtained from data we receive from claims. For other measures we rely upon data obtained directly from medical records to increase reliability. Despite these precautions, there may be a slight margin of error. Each quality measure shown in these reports reflects only a portion of the care provided by the physicians within these groups and should not be used as a sole basis for decision making. We encourage you to consider this information as well as other resources before selecting a physician to receive care from.

 

We hope you find this information helpful and we welcome your feedback. Please send your questions or comments to MVP’s Quality Improvement Department dchambers@mvphealthcare.com. We solicit feedback from both physicians and members to help us clarify existing reports and to develop future reports that are meaningful. Our goal is to respond to your questions within 5 business days.
