The document discusses DTECTM, a service that analyzes healthcare claims data to identify gaps in quality of care for patient populations with cardiovascular diseases. It produces reports that assess baseline performance, identify barriers, target individuals for intervention, and reassess performance. Examples show how DTECTM was used by health plans to measure quality indicators, identify members for programs, and document trends over time. The document suggests DTECTM could help Quality Improvement Organizations and Medicare Part D by leveraging claims data to provide insights into care quality and support clinical decision making.
