Unlocking Revenue with Enhanced Services in EQUIPP
Several programs within EQUIPP are designed to incentivize pharmacies for proactive patient engagement and quality care:
1. Longitudinal Adherence Monitoring Program (LAMP): Engage Patients, Earn Dollars
LAMP is live in EQUIPP and this program identifies patients attributed to your pharmacy who require consultation to remain adherent to their medication. The program rewards pharmacies for engaging with these patients and documenting specific interventions. Available interventions include:
- Quarterly Check-ins: Regular communication to support adherence.
- Extended Day Supply (EDS) Conversions: Transitioning eligible patients from 30-day to extended day supplies.
- SUPD and SPC Conversions: Further opportunities to optimize medication dispensing by closing statin-related gaps in care.
- Final Fill and Year-End Adherence Bonuses (Coming Later This Year): Additional incentives for successful adherence management throughout the course of measurement year.
How to Access LAMP Opportunities:
- Look for the bull’s-eye icon on the left side of your EQUIPP dashboard. This indicates available opportunities.
- Click the bull’s-eye and select the Longitudinal Adherence Monitoring program.
- Eligible patients and their available interventions will appear under the Document Status column.
- Click expand next to a patient to view all available interventions.
- Document the intervention in EQUIPP to receive payment.
2. Controlling Blood Pressure Program: Incentives for Documented Readings
Participate in our program and receive incentive payments for electronically recording blood pressure readings for eligible patients. Empower your credentialed team members to conduct patient blood pressure interventions and screenings and document their findings within the EQUIPP platform. By leveraging EQUIPP, you can help your patients take a proactive approach to managing hypertension, ultimately leading to improved health outcomes and increased revenue for your pharmacy.
3. For CLIA-waived Pharmacies: A1c Readings
Empower your patients to proactively manage their diabetes through convenient point-of-care A1c testing at your CLIA-waived pharmacy. You can receive incentive payments for electronically recording these results for eligible individuals via EQUIPP. Your credentialed staff can provide valuable screenings and interventions, leading to improved disease state management. Oftentimes, these patients are eligible for both blood pressure and A1C readings, so be sure to schedule time with these valuable patients accordingly.
