Quality Ratings
Overall Quality Rating
4.5 out of 5
Preventive Screenings
5.0
Breast cancer is most easily treatable if it is caught early. Mammograms can often catch tissue changes well before a patient or physician could feel them. Women ages 40 to 74 should get a mammogram every one to two years, even if they do not have a family history of breast cancer.
3.0
Cervical cancer is one of the most successfully treated cancers if it is found early or in the pre-cancer stages. Women ages 21 to 65 should get a Pap test every three years. Those between 30 and 65 may be able to get a Pap test every five years if they do HPV testing with or without a Pap test.
5.0
Colorectal cancer is the third most common cancer and the second leading cause of cancer related deaths in the U.S. However, it is 90% preventable with early screening. Colon cancer screening should start at age 50 and occur every ten years or sooner, based on your risk for colon cancer, until age 75. Other screening options are available, such as annual fecal immunochemical testing. Talk to your doctor about which is best for you, especially if you have a family history of colon cancer as this puts you at higher risk.
Diabetes Screenings
5.0
Controlling blood glucose is important. It slows the start and progression of eye disease caused by diabetes. Elevated blood sugar levels can injure the blood vessels in the eyes causing glaucoma and retinopathy. If you have diabetes, it is recommended that you get a retinal or dilated eye exam from an ophthalmologist or optometrist every year.
5.0
Controlling blood glucose is important. It slows the start and progression of heart diseases, nerve diseases and other complications caused by diabetes. An A1C test checks blood glucose levels over a period of time. The test should be done at least twice a year to screen for problems, with a goal of <7% for most people.
Medication Adherence
5.0
It is important to take your medications the way your doctor prescribes them. If you have high cholesterol, the medications your doctor prescribes to control it are one of the best defenses to regulate your cholesterol levels and reduce your risk of heart attack and stroke.
5.0
It is important to take your medications the way your doctor prescribes them. If you have high blood pressure, the medications your doctor prescribes to control it are one of your best defenses to regulate your blood pressure and reduce your risk of heart attack and stroke.

How We Measure Quality
We measure quality so you can find excellent, high-quality healthcare.
Find your primary care or women’s health doctor and see how they compare to local and national averages, which are measured by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA*).
The performance scores for each quality measure are based on information obtained through SelectHealth quality programs over a rolling 12-month period. Each score is compared to national benchmarks from the Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS**), as well as to performance for similar specialty types in the SelectHealth networks.
**HEDIS is a registered trademark of the *NCQA and is designed to measure performance on important dimensions of care and services.
Blue ribbons indicate a provider’s quality performance nationally, based on their ratings:
- 1 blue ribbon < 25th percentile
- 2 blue ribbons ≥ 25th percentile and < 50th percentile
- 3 blue ribbons ≥ 50th percentile and < 75th percentile
- 4 blue ribbons ≥ 75th percentile and < 90th percentile
- 5 blue ribbons ≥ 90th percentile
If a provider does not have a quality rating, this usually means that he or she does not have enough volume of SelectHealth membership to gather data for the measures. It does not mean that the provider performs below those with ratings.
As you view these scores, remember that patients’ compliance can impact a physician’s score. For example, if a physician recommends a specific test or medical service, and the patient chooses not to have the test or service, the physician does not receive"credit" for that recommended care. This can negatively impact the provider’s overall score.
We measure in four main areas: 1) preventive screenings, 2) diabetes screenings, 3) medication adherence (whether a patient is taking medications as prescribed), and 4) pediatric monitoring.
