Quality Care Incentives (QCI) Program

Fidelis Care's QCI Program rewards groups/practices for providing recommended preventive care, for caring for members with chronic disease, and for comprehensive obstetrical care. As your health plan partner, we remain committed to rewarding our providers for achieving high-quality outcomes and have made significant changes to the program for measurement year 2024 to align with our shared goals, encourage participation, and recognize regional differences within New York State.

Fidelis Care’s Quality Care Incentives (QCI) Program is available on Provider Access Online. Once logged in, please navigate to the File Downloads section to access the brochure.

Within the brochure, we are providing a summary of the components of our QCI Program, along with the associated coding specifications, to help you drive improvements in quality and to reward you for your efforts. Fidelis Care also provides monthly care gap reports to track your incremental performance, and identify those patients who may benefit from needed care and services.

If you have any questions regarding Fidelis Care’s Quality Care Incentives, please contact your Provider Partnership Associate.

Fidelis Care Opens Applications to Providers and Organizations for Maternal Health Grants Across New York State
8/21/2024 • Posted by Provider Relations in Provider News

 

Grants of $10,000 to $20,000 aimed at addressing maternal health disparities, especially in underserved communities

Deadline to apply is 5 p.m. ET on Friday, September 6, 2024

 

Fidelis Care, a statewide health plan with more than 2.4 million members in New York State and a Centene Corporation company, has opened the application process for its second annual maternal health grant program. Health care providers and community-based organizations across New York State that address maternal health disparities, particularly in underserved communities, are encouraged to apply for the grants, which range from $10,000 to $20,000. The application deadline is 5 p.m. ET on Friday, September 6, 2024.

“Fidelis Care is committed to ensuring equitable access to quality, affordable maternal care for all – especially those most in need,” said Fidelis Care CEO Thomas Halloran. “These grants will support our health care partners who work tirelessly to address disparities in maternal care. For this round of grants, we have opened the application process to both providers and community-based organizations across New York State, understanding the critical role they play in the health and well-being of mothers and their babies.”
 
The March of Dimes says one in 11 babies born in New York State in 2022 was premature, and one in 12 babies was of low birthweight. In New York, Black infants (13.1%) were nearly twice as likely as white infants (7.7%) to be born preterm. Fidelis Care’s grants provide much needed prenatal and postnatal services to improve these outcomes statewide and are consistent with Fidelis Care’s key areas of focus to address the systemic health disparities that impact the health and wellness of New Yorkers, including behavioral health and rural health.

Health care providers and community-based organizations that offer maternal health services may apply for the Fidelis Care maternal health grants now through 5 p.m. ET on September 6, 2024. Awards will be announced on or before September 27, 2024.

Recipients will be chosen based upon strength of proposal including impact, sustainability, organizational rating, social media verification and regional location, with consideration given to counties that did not have recipient organizations in the 2023 Fidelis Care maternal health grants distribution.
