Dr. Davis Explains the Annual Wellness Visit -

Scotland County Hospital and its rural health clinics, Memphis Medical Services, Lancaster Medical Services and Wyaconda Medical Services, have recently begun offering a heightened focus on preventative health services. Provisions in the Affordable Care Act of 2010 included programs that would be rolled out year by year. Ramping up high quality prevention programs was one of these provisions. The Centers for Medicare Services (CMS) developed a new benefit to its recipients called the Annual Wellness Visit. This benefit is offered every 12 months to Medicare beneficiaries and is covered at no cost regardless of having a supplemental insurance plan or not. However, this Annual Wellness Visit, is not a physician visit or a physical examination. This is not to be confused with a “Well-Woman Exam” or a “Yearly Physical”. Historically, patients were used to these terms referring to their yearly visit with their physician including a physical examination. However, Medicare’s “Annual Wellness Visit” is completely different and is designed to be an annual visit conducted at the request of your physician to review your progress on completion on all of your recommended preventative health services. This might include a mammogram for breast cancer screening or a colonoscopy for colon cancer screening or a pneumonia vaccination for immunity against certain types of pneumonia.

Hospital Receives GOLD Award for Quality Care -

Scotland County Hospital has received the TMF Hospital Quality Improvement Gold Award from TMF® Health Quality Institute. It honors hospitals that are performing quality initiatives aimed at improving outcomes in patient care by recognizing those hospitals that have improved their performance on specific national quality measures. This program was established in 2004 as a non-competitive recognition program designed to identify exemplary outcomes achieved by hospitals. Rhonda Roberts is our Case Manager at Scotland County Hospital and she studied each readmission to the hospital and the risk of readmissions rate and measured the data for over a year to qualify us for this award. Many of our hospital nurses and clinical staff can also take credit for the success of this award. It was a significant amount of work, but the initiatives were worth it because it was the right thing to do for our patients.
