Quality Improvement Program

Community Health Choice cares about all our Members. Our vision is a healthy life for every Texan. Our mission is to improve the health and well-being of underserved Texans by opening doors to health care and health-related social services.

Quality Improvement Program

The quality of our care and services is very important to Community, as is our Members’ safety. Our Quality Improvement Program uses things like quality scores, reports, and Member and Provider satisfaction surveys to see how we are doing.

The program’s overall objectives are to help us monitor and evaluate real-life opinions about our services and processes, and then use the results to make improvements in areas such as:

Healthcare access and delivery
Customer service and satisfaction
Provider service and satisfaction
Care (disease) management and complex case management
Preventive and interventional healthcare services

Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (CAHPS®)

The CAHPS® survey asks about the health care you and your family are receiving from Community Health Choice to help us understand:

How satisfied you are with Community
How satisfied you are with your primary care physician and specialist
How fast and easy you can get care
How well you and your doctor talk about your care
How satisfied you are with your care and services
How Community can improve

Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS®)

Community Health Choice uses HEDIS® each year as a way to measure the quality of our care and services. These HEDIS® measures also show where plans can improve. Community’s strategic goal is to be better than 75 percent of other Medicaid health plans in the nation.

Community Health Choice Programs for Qualified Members

Community offers many programs to make our care and services even better. These include:

Case Management: assigns Case Managers to Members who help them learn to manage their health, follow their doctor’s plans of care, and get the care they need.
Disease Management: provides education and support to Members with certain chronic conditions.
Medication Therapy Management: connects Members to a pharmacist who helps them manage their medicines.
Utilization Management: helps control costs and ensure the medical need for medicines, surgeries, and hospital stays.
