Reminder calls to your Medicare patients from a Priority Health nurse

A Priority Health nurse will make calls to your patients on the following HEDIS topics:
  • Female patients who suffered a fracture. Patients will be encouraged to complete a bone mineral density test or ask their doctor for a prescription for a drug to treat or prevent osteoporosis in the six months after their fracture.
  • Patients with a new diagnosis or newly active COPD will be encouraged to complete a spirometry test to confirm the diagnosis.
  • Patients with diabetes who are overdue for a retinal exam, A1c or LDL-C screening will be encouraged to complete these screenings.
