Use DatafiedTM to collect requested data at no cost
Wellcare is collecting data for the Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS®) Measurement Year 2024 Clinical Effectiveness of Care measures. HEDIS is a standard set of nationally reported measures used to assess the quality of care given to members.
Physicians and participating physician groups (PPGs) will be randomly contacted for medical records from January 2, 2025, to May 30, 2025. Based on a provision in their contract, physicians and PPGs must submit member data when requested for health care operations and quality review.
Datafied simplifies record collection and saves you time
Datafied has been contracted to retrieve the requested medical records. They can also help copy records for high-volume provider sites. If a physician or PPG chooses to use a different copy service vendor, it is at their own expense.
Your contact information will be confirmed by telephone before the HEDIS packet is sent. The packet will include a list of members and specific data needed.
Send records within seven days
When contacted, you must ensure the records are released within seven days.
- If unable to do so, contact Datafied at 1-714-666-0951 with a time frame when they will be sent. Contact information is included in the packet.
- If records are not available, or the member was not your established patient during the requested time frame, physicians and PPGs must:
- Confirm that they do not see the patient(s) at other locations. If they do, the physician or PPG must indicate this on the Certificate of No Record (CNR) or let the Datafied contact know.
- Complete the CNR included in the packet. Return the CNR to Datafied, or
- Contact Datafied at 1-714-666-0951 right away so the request can
be redirected.
