Based on a recent analysis, we have updated the requirements for submitting
a SOAP (Subjective, Objective, Assessment, and Plan) Progress Note through
ePASS® for Medicare Advantage HMO and PPO members, as well as
certain commercial HMO, POS, and PPO members.
Our analysis showed that our ability to assist in closing remaining gaps is
enhanced by receiving ePASS® information as close to the visit
as possible. It also reduces our outreach to members who have already had gaps
closed. Therefore, the total eligible incentive amount will remain the same for
each submission as long as it is submitted within 90 days of
the patient?s visit.
The submission for the second visit will be eligible only if the visit
occurred more than four months after the first visit for which you submitted
the initial SOAP Progress Note. Additionally, there remains a limit of two
submissions per member, per calendar year.
If you have any questions regarding SOAP Progress Notes or using
ePASS®, please contact Inovalon at 1-877-448-8125
. For any questions about the ePASS® incentive or
payment, please
