New HEDIS tip sheet for osteoporosis measure

Point32Health Medicare Advantage/Senior Products

Point32Health has developed a new HEDIS® tip sheet for the Osteoporosis Management in Women Who Had a Fracture (OMW) measure.

The OMW measure assesses the percentage of women 67-85 years of age who suffered a fracture and received either a bone mineral density test or a drug prescription to treat osteoporosis in the 180 days (6 months) after the fracture.

The best practices highlighted in this tip sheet, as well as our other HEDIS tip sheets, are intended to optimize your HEDIS rates and identify opportunities to improve patient care.

For the full collection of Point32Health tip sheets currently available to providers, refer to the HEDIS tip sheet page on our provider website.

And as always, be sure to look to future issues of Insights and Updates for Providers for new information as we continue to develop additional tip sheets!
