Qualidigm, the Medicare Quality Improvement Organization for Connecticut, is reporting the rates of four outpatient services for Medicare beneficiaries on its website (www.qualidigm.org). These measures include screening for breast cancer (mammography) and chronic disease management for diabetes (HbAlc, eye exam and lipid profile). Maps of Connecticut illustrate the rates for Whites and Non-whites by Health Service Area. The maps highlight variation across small local areas and between Whites and Non-whites. By reporting these rates publicly, Qualidigm hopes to facilitate ongoing efforts by community organizations and health care providers to make improvements in care, especially for the underserved populations throughout the state.
