Encounter Data Accuracy Study Sample Clauses
Encounter Data Accuracy Study. Measure: This accuracy study will compare the accuracy and completeness of payment data stored in MCPs’ claims systems during the study period to payment data submitted to and accepted by ODJFS. The measure will be calculated per MCP. Payment information found in MCPs’ claims systems for paid claims that does not match payment information found on a corresponding encounter will be counted as omissions.
Encounter Data Accuracy Study. Measure: ODJFS validates the encounter data by measuring the rate of agreement between encounters and the corresponding medical records. The focus of the accuracy study will be on delivery encounters. Its primary purpose will be to verify that MCPs submit encounter data accurately and to ensure only one payment is made per delivery. The rate of appropriate payments will be determined by comparing a sample of delivery payments to the medical record. Appendix L
Encounter Data Accuracy Study. Measure: This accuracy study will compare the accuracy and completeness of payment data stored in MCPs’ claims systems during the study period to payment data submitted to and accepted by ODJFS. The measure will be calculated per MCP. Payment information found in MCPs’ claims systems for paid claims that does not match payment information found on a corresponding encounter will be counted as omissions. Report Period: In order to provide timely feedback on the omission rate of encounters, the report period will be the most recent from when the measure is initiated. This measure is conducted annually. Data Quality Standard for Measure: TBD for SFY 2008 and SFY 2009. Penalty for Noncompliance: The first time an MCP is noncompliant with a standard for this measure, ODJFS will issue a Sanction Advisory informing the MCP that any future noncompliance instances with the standard for this measure will result in ODJFS imposing a monetary sanction. Upon all subsequent measurements of performance, if an MCP is again determined to be noncompliant with the standard, ODJFS will impose a monetary sanction (see Section 6.) of one percent of the current month’s premium payment. Once the MCP is performing at standard levels and violations/deficiencies are resolved to the satisfaction of ODJFS, the money will be refunded.
