Health plans struggle to report on depression quality measures that require clinical data.
This study examined challenges and opportunities for reporting 5 HEDIS measures which used electronic clinical data to assess adolescent and perinatal depression care quality. Two learning collaboratives were convened with 10 health plans from 5 states. The authors conducted analysis of notes from collaborative meetings and individual calls with health plans to identify key challenges and strategies for reporting. The challenges most reported included: 1) lack of access to clinical data sources where the results of patient-reported tools were documented; 2) unavailability of the results of patient-reported tools in usable data fields; 3) lack of routine depression screening and ongoing assessment occurring in provider practices.
