Hello Ruth ~

Didn't expect a reply here to what I believe may have been my topic! Was just stopping in as recommended by Sylvia during an online chat today regarding a course.

Nevertheless, I thank you for taking the time to respond. We have been reporting measures on our Medicare Advantage AWV claims. Is that not typical? We have been thanked by two different ACOs for reporting this way in addition to their many other requests. For instance, we report the CPT Category II code of 3008F w/V85.xx. We will also attach 278.0x, if appropriate.

Please share your thoughts. Are we crazy people, Ruth? We can handle the truth ~~~ really ~~~

I don't have any way to know, but it is great that your organization does report measures.
