Medication Adherence Outreach (primary function)

• Conduct daily outbound telephonic outreach to members identified as at risk for non-adherence to diabetes, hypertension, and cholesterol medications, and to members with other adherence-related gaps.
• Identify and resolve barriers to adherence, including cost concerns, transportation, refill timing, side effects, and confusion about the regimen; escalated queries to pharmacist team.
• Coordinate directly with retail and mail-order pharmacies to confirm fill history, resolve refill delays, transfer prescriptions, and support conversion to 90- and 100-day supplies.
• Contact prescriber offices to request refills, clarify discontinuation or changed therapy, and support prescriber-level interventions.
• Meet established daily and weekly productivity standards for completed outreach (currently 46 completed outreaches per day), and maintain accurate, timely documentation of every contact.

Gaps in Care Outreach

• Perform member outreach on open HEDIS/QARR gaps in care, educating members on the recommended service and assisting with scheduling or follow-up as needed.
• Support measure-specific campaigns (for example, breast cancer screening, colorectal cancer screening, blood pressure control, and diabetes care) as assigned by Quality leadership.
• Follow up on outreach attempts and referrals to confirm completion of services and closure of gaps.

Provider, Pharmacy, and Member Relationships

• Build and maintain positive working relationships with provider office staff, pharmacy staff, and members to support consistent, cooperative follow-through on quality initiatives.
• Serve as a reliable point of contact for provider offices with questions about gaps-in-care lists, member outreach status, and record requests.
• Partner with Provider Engagement representatives to reinforce quality messaging with practices and to elevate office-level issues.
• Communicate professionally and empathetically with members, recognizing that the member experience of these calls affects overall plan perception.

Medical Record and Documentation Support

• Support HEDIS medical record retrieval by contacting provider offices to request records, tracking outstanding requests, and following up on non-responsive offices, with volume increasing during the year-end retrieval period.
• Manage the shared Quality fax queue: monitor incoming faxes, route and index documents to the appropriate staff and systems, send outbound record requests, and confirm receipt.
• Perform accurate data entry of outreach activity and supporting documentation into quality platforms and reporting tools.

General

• Maintain working knowledge of HEDIS/QARR measure requirements relevant to assigned outreach campaigns and adherence measures.
• Proactively identify recurring barriers, member or provider trends, and process issues, and raise them to Quality leadership with suggested solutions.

• Superior interpersonal skills and the ability to build cooperative relationships with provider office staff, pharmacy staff, members, and colleagues across the organization.
• Strong attention to detail and accuracy in documentation and data entry.
• Strong organizational and multi-tasking skills; ability to manage a daily outreach list, a shared fax queue, and outstanding record requests simultaneously.

• Proficiency in MS Excel, Word, and Outlook; ability to learn new quality and population health platforms quickly.
