Overview

This book has been updated to provide practical advice for primary care providers (PCPs) about major trends that have emerged over the past several years, such as growing patient enrollment in managed care health plans, performance evaluation of PCPs by outside agencies, and the dramatic increase in billing being audited. This book links quality and reimbursement issues, using a systems approach that clinicians may incorporate into their practice. The included CD-ROM contains customizable forms, with checklist progress note forms for the 20 most common primary care diagnoses and checklists of 20 primary care tasks for HEDIS measurements.
