How can I use the physician, clinic, or group performance information?
The performance information can be particularly helpful with situations that apply to you or your family. The results look at individual measures of care, like blood glucose (sugar) testing for people with diabetes. Information about a measure may be helpful if you or a family member has a concern about a particular condition or a general interest based on gender or age for prevention and screening measures. Overall, you can use this information to make more informed decisions about your healthcare. Be sure to follow your doctor’s advice about getting recommended care. Show this to your employer to discuss whether your health benefits cover the recommended services and treatment.
