Great news for HQM users!
We are pleased to announce that the NextGen® Health Quality Measures (NextGen HQM) 4.1 upgrade was released this week. This new version features enhanced functionality to make your quality measures reporting easier than ever, including:
ACO measures by payer
One of the most notable is the delivery of ACO measures with the ability to filter by commercial payer. Also, the new ‘Data File Download’ feature enables you to download all data from the Provider Patient Report or Provider Summary Report to create a client-specific dashboard. Your administrator can select the specific program for which you need data extracted as well as the ability to schedule the data extract weekly, monthly or on-demand by user. Please open a Success Community Case with the Product Category: Health Quality Measures (HQM) and Topic: HQM Install/Training/Program.
Versatile patient demographic filtering
Another new feature with this release is the Patient Demographic filtering section in the new “Compose Reports” section of the HQM Portal. Users now have the ability to filter by patient demographics. The user can filter by particular gender, race, and ethnicity.
According to Sr. Product Manager Sharon Tompkins, NextGen HQM 4.1 is setting the stage for Commercial Payer filtering for all quality programs as we move forward. The NextGen HQM 4.1 Release Notes will be available on the Success Community after release.
