High Blood Pressure Tests in KanCare at or Above 50th Percentile

Posted on October 21, 2021 at 12:51 PM by Kansas Department of Administration

This measure shows how well a program is meeting its members’ needs and how well we are managing the care of these populations.  If the measure is below 50th Percentile, the annual goal is a 5.0% increase from previous year.

In some cases, quarterly data has been annualized to provide a better comparison to prior fiscal years.  Generally, measures that use percentages have been annualized.  This prevents distortions in the quarterly data that may occur because of smaller populations sizes.  Measures that show the numbers of incidents, activities or individuals reflect actual numbers for the quarter.  This allows users to see progress from one quarter to the next towards identified goals.
