Beginning in October, providers who participate in our PCP Quality Incentive Program (PQIP) began seeing additional health equity data in their “gaps in care” reporting. This new data indicates how members of your panel of different races and ethnicities are performing relative to various HEDIS® measures. We’re now providing it to help you ensure your patients are receiving equitable care.

Additionally, you will now see additional data points for Medicare Advantage members in your panel related to their disability and income status. We’re providing this information to you so we can work together to improve the health and wellness of your patients, our members, and all Rhode Islanders. If you have any questions about your reporting, please contact QualityHEDIS@bcbsri.org.
