Anthem Quality In-sights® (AQI) Program
• Launched January 1, 2012
• Quality gate
• Applicable to all primary care physicians (PCP) in all Anthem
networks and products, including Medicaid
 Over 7,500 physicians in program
• PCPs can earn increases to E&M codes
• All clinical measures based on nationally recognized metrics
endorsed by:
 National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA)
 National Quality Forum (NQF)
 Ambulatory Quality Alliance (AQA)
 Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS)

Patient Centered Primary Care (PC2):
Taking AQI to a New Level
Drive the transformation to a patient
centered care model that promotes access,
coordination across the continuum,
prevention and wellness by collaborating
with primary care physicians in ways that
allow them to successfully manage the
health of their patients and thrive in a value
based reimbursement environment.
This strategy represents an aggressive and fundamental shift
in how we interact with and engage primary care physicians on all levels:
clinically, contractually, operationally and culturally.

Patient Centered Primary Care: Foundational Pillars
This strategy will drive transformation to a patient-centered care model by aligning
economic incentives and giving primary care physicians the tools they need to thrive
in a value-based reimbursement environment.

Anthem + Employer + Provider Partnership
To truly impact cost and quality of care, WE – Anthem, employers and
providers – need to migrate towards value based reimbursement
 Our local market penetration and breadth across
Virginia positions us well to provide solutions that
best respond to local market needs and foster
provider capabilities
 Value based contracting is a paradigm shift and will
be our standard method for compensating providers
going forward
 We can help drive positive change in quality and
cost when we bring all of our business to the table –
we can do this effectively in partnership with you
Working together (Anthem, Customer and Provider)
we can drive healthcare transformation
