PO Monthly Digest April 2024

Meetings
  • April PO calls are going to be canceled for MCT2D this month as a result of the regional meetings taking place. We will update the invites shortly.  Five of the seven regional meetings take place in April. Please make sure that your clinical champions are registered three weeks in advance of the meetings. The final two regional meetings will take place in May.
    • April 9th- Blue Jay/Livonia
    • April 11th- Badger/Ann Arbor
    • April 16th: Black Bear/Troy
    • April 23rd: Grey Wolf/Kalamazoo
    • April 24th: Blue Gill/Grand Rapids 
  • Collaborative wide meeting registration will open this week. An administrative lead and the PO clinical champion are required to attend per the PO scorecard requirements.  April 26th:  (12pm): There will be a learning community event on “Integrating Low Carbohydrate Diet with Continuous Glucose Monitors” led by Dr. Dina Griauzde.
VBR
  • Please remind your providers about upcoming VBR deadlines (June 1st). There are less than two months remaining in the current VBR year and many physicians and practices who still need to complete their learning community requirement. 
  • The final component of the PO level quality improvement initiative VBR –“Lessons Learned/Reflection” will be available later this month for you to view in the admin portal. This is also due on June 1st but we wanted to give you some time to review at any meetings that you may have with practices prior to that due date. 
  • POs with participating specialists: PCP and specialist partnerships are due in the administrative portal today, April 1st.

Reminders/FYIs
  • Quarterly data reports will be distributed later this month, including updated A1C and BMI submission rates by PO. We are still evaluating if it makes sense to include these rates as part of the final PO scorecard, but wanted to provide them on an informational basis. 
  • PCP recruitment remains open through April 19th, 2024. MCT2D has the capacity to bring on an additional 75 primary care practices. Please submit any primary care site interested in joining on the administrative portal by this date.
