  Blue Shield of California launched its physician quality recognition program June 1, 2010. Network physician listings include physician quality designations for a set of 8 CPPI quality measures. A set of physicians, who have sufficient patient samples to be reliably scored, have been designated as higher quality performing physicians for select preventive screening and chronic care measures. Blue Shield members can view this new information in the plan's online physician directory. See the Blue Shield announcement here. Physicians in the Blue Shield network who would like to request a duplicate of the Physician Performance Report that you received last summer may request a copy here. The CPPI 2010 physician quality measurement and reporting is getting underway. This summer, patient care quality will be evaluated using an expanded number of quality measures. Results will be mailed to physicians in August. At that time, physicians are encouraged to go online, review their patient-level results and make any corrections due to missing data or patient circumstances. Details and dates will be announced here in June.
