Please note that changes were made to the submission protocols for the Medicaid immunization and Lead Testing measures. You are now required to submit information on both the New York State Data Submission System and the Medicaid immunization diskettes. The Office of Managed Care, Bureau of Quality Management and Outcomes Research, is sponsoring a technical assistance workshop on 2000 QARR at the Academy of Medicine in New York City on January 11, 2001. We will be sending an agenda and additional information about the workshop in the near future. Representatives from plans who are reporting for the first time or have performed poorly on prior years' audits are encouraged to attend.
Attendance is limited.
