New! Enhanced Services Update
Participating pharmacies will see the bullseye in the left navigation bar of EQUIPP. Within the Enhanced Services tab, pharmacies may earn reimbursement for completing documentation for the opportunities presented. The following programs are displayed:
Longitudinal Adherence Monitoring Program (LAMP) – Pharmacies can earn an incentive by completing opportunities for patient outreach AND for maintaining a patient's adherence score at the end of the year. This program provides earnings at a per patient per measure level and documentation is required.
Controlling Blood Pressure (CBP) –New opportunities for pharmacies to document blood pressure readings, for patients that do not have one reported to their health plan. Electronic readings should be completed and must be documented to earn available bonus dollars.
UHC Medicaid P4P –A pay-for-performance program where patients must be adherent by year end in the Proportion of Days Covered (PDC) measure they’re attributed to. Engagement documentation for these patients within EQUIPP must be done at least twice to be eligible for payment.
Additional resources on the program can be found via Knowledge Base.
NOTE: The Enhanced Services tab in EQUIPP is only visible for pharmacy-affiliated accounts and is not viewable for corporate or field management accounts. Your EQUIPP Account Manager and our Engagement Specialists will provide reporting that includes opportunities available and documented by pharmacies.
