Clinic and PCP HealthCheck Compliance Reports
The State of Wisconsin requires that at least an 80% compliance rate of eligible HealthCheck exams be attained per state region. Security Health Plan also requires this of affiliated providers and clinics. Therefore, Security Health Plan produces periodic practice-specific compliance percentage reports as well as overall compliance for each clinic. Year-end reports are distributed in April or May the following year to allow for complete claim submission.
HealthCheck checkup includes:
- Health and developmental history (including anticipatory guidance).
- Unclothed physical examination.
- Vision screening
- Hearing screening
- Dental screening and a referral to a dentist beginning at age 1
- Immunizations appropriate for age (shots)
- Blood and urine lab tests (including blood lead-level testing when appropriate for age)
Lab Tests
The blood lead test is the only required lab. Other lab work is conducted at the provider’s discretion. Verbal lead-risk assessment is recommended by Security Health Plan. Begin at age 6 months and then complete at each visit up to age 6 years.
