We are in the process of signing up for Medicaid Incentive. We have been told we will need a report showing the practice is 30% or greater medicaid. Does anyone know if these refers to 30% of the patients or 30% of the encounters?
The other question I have is they want a letter from the Vendor. Where are others getting their letters from, OEMR?
Best of my recollection is 30% of the unique patients seen in the 90 day period (or 365 day in year 2). We would have exceeded the 30% benchmark, but many of our Medicaid patients are registered through Carolina Access - a sort of M’caid HMO that is specifically excluded.
>30% or greater medicaid.
This is for qualifying if you can register for MU incentives. This is for 30% of the encounters of unique patients - for Medicaid, at least, I don;t know about Medicare.
