SPOTLIGHT


HOW OFTEN DO OUR REGION'S PATIENTS RECEIVE CERTAIN RECOMMENDED HEALTH CARE SERVICES?

MHI sent more than 1,200 physicians private Clinical Quality Reviews showing how often their patients received recommended care for conditions such as heart disease and diabetes. The reports also show how often patients received preventive care such as breast cancer screening and cervical cancer screening.
