Humana
Star Ratings Program Re-launched!
Up to $40
for Achieving Adherence Goals
Mirixa will soon re-launch an updated Humana Star Ratings Program.
The goal of this program is to improve patients' adherence to target
medications, by ensuring that patients have a sufficient quantity of each medication
to achieve a Proportion of Days Covered ("PDC") greater than 80%, and
by counseling patients on the importance of adherence.
Cases will be presented with "General Adherence Counseling
Alerts," and/or "Conversion Counseling Alerts." The Conversion Counseling
Alerts encourage pharmacists to fill a patient's prescription with a 90-day
supply of medication rather than a 30-day supply, as a means of improving the
patient's adherence.
Mirixa will pay the pharmacy up to $40.00 per alert, payable in
one or two installments per the terms below. To receive payment, pharmacists
are required to resolve each alert by:
- Delivering
the service and filling the resulting prescription before the case due
date,
- Filling
the targeted medication with either a 90-day supply of medication or a
30-day supply of medication,
- Providing
subsequent refill(s) as needed in a timely manner for the remainder of the
year,
- Processing
all prescriptions through Humana so that they appear in claims data, and
- Ensuring
the PDC for the target medication is greater than 80% at the end of the
year.
Immediate attention to these
cases is important!
Performance Based Payment Terms:
General Adherence Counseling
For each alert resolved, pharmacies will be paid a $40.00 adherence payment after the
end of the year if:
- Resolving
the alert resulted in a timely fill of either a 30-day or 90-day supply of
the medication, and
- Subsequent
refill(s) are provided to the patient in a timely manner for the remainder
of the year, so
- The
PDC for the target medication is greater than 80% at the end of the
year.
Conversion Counseling
Ideally (Switching from 30-day supply to 90-day supply)
For each alert resolved, pharmacies will be paid a $30.00 conversion payment before
the end of the year if:
- Resolving
the alert resulted in a fill of a 90-day supply of the medication before
the case due date.
Pharmacies will be paid an additional $10.00 adherence payment after
the end of the year for each alert resolved if:
- When
applicable, subsequent refill(s) are also provided to the patient in a
timely manner for the remainder of the year, so
- The
PDC for the target medication is greater than 80% at the end of the year.
Alternatively, (Not switching from 30-day supply to 90-day supply
but still improving adherence),
For each alert resolved, pharmacies will be paid a $40.00 adherence payment after the
end of the year if:
- Resolving
the alert resulted in a timely fill of a 30-day supply of the medication,
and
- Subsequent
refill(s) are provided to the patient in a timely manner for the remainder
of the year, so
- The
PDC for the target medication is greater than 80% at the end of the year.
