Implementation

There are currently eleven (11) Seguridad Health Measures® as part of the Choose My Pharmacy® measurement system summarized in chapter 3. The full measure specifications may be found in chapter 4.

A measurement system is a report card, or star rating, evaluating the performance of the stakeholder – in this case, community pharmacies. The pharmacy is encouraged to implement a myriad of diverse services to improve patient outcomes and lower healthcare cost. Choose My Pharmacy® is how well the pharmacy performs in these goals.

Every pharmacy that participates in Choose My Pharmacy® shares standard, de-identified data to Seguridad, Inc. Seguridad, Inc uses proprietary calculations and analytics to produce a customized report card for the pharmacy. Each pharmacy receives a calendar year score, reported with four quarterly report cards. Overtime, pharmacies will be able to track progress year-over-year on Seguridad Health Measures® - from the current core set to future measures in development.

Seguridad leverages a HIPAA-Secure survey platform, JotForm, to help collect pharmacy information. Each pharmacy pharmacist-in-charge (PIC) will:

  1. Receive a Business Associate Agreement (BAA) between the pharmacy and Seguridad. This form will be pre-populated with pharmacy specific details and a digital signature is requested.

  2. The PIC will receive the Seguridad PIC On-Boarding Survey after execution of the BAA.

  3. The PIC will receive the Seguridad Data Request after the PIC On-Boarding Survey is complete.
    a. This will be requested on a quarterly basis to update measure results.

  4. The PIC will receive a link for the Employee Survey. This is to be completed by each individual involved with the fill and dispensing of medications.

  5. Once all data is collected, Seguridad will provide a Choose My Pharmacy® Health Measures Report Card to the pharmacy.
