Why Prospective Reviews?
Not all diagnoses or HCC codes can simply be inferred from historical data discovered in chart reviews and claims files. In fact errors and omissions are common in retrospective review. By assessing and documenting members’ current and complete health status via prospective 1:1 member evaluations – using validated data collection methods - providers, health plans, patients and caregivers can join forces to develop more effective treatment recommendations and preventive care plans.

When designed and administered by experienced clinicians and healthcare providers trained in HRA implementation, HCC diagnostics, prospective member evaluations will help your organization:
  • Manage chronic conditions more effectively
  • Inform and empower providers with real-time data
  • Accelerate CMS reimbursement
  • Incorporate standards of care and HEDIS measures
  • Substantiate care management initiatives, SNP/PACE projects and NCQA programs
  • Increase member and physician loyalty
  • Enhance marketability of your Medicare Advantage and Medicaid plan
  • Fund current and future care management initiatives
Each Health Risk Assessment (HRA) form is completed manually by our health care practitioners and transmitted daily via secure JFAX to Focus Care’s SFTP site. Data is de-identified, encrypted and stored in one onsite and two offsite backup locations, and each HRA digital image is reviewed by our Quality Assurance team. We maintain a policy of strict adherence to quality standards, professional ethics, as well as federal and state regulations.
