Reading an HQM Patient Clinical Quality Report

The Patient Quality Reporting window displays the status by measure for the selected patient and reporting program and shows the total number of Treatment Opportunities. The patient's name appears on the title bar. The report groups measures for predefined reporting programs as configured within the client’s HQM portal. Each program appears in a separate tab at the top in alphabetical order.
