Usage Guidance
-
This metric is intended to capture the amount of products/services distributed for which the recipient made no payment but for which the organization received (or expects to receive) payment or reimbursement by a third party (for example, an insurance company).
-
For example, a medical office that provides annual physicals for which the patient has no copay but an insurance company pays a fee on the patient’s behalf would capture that service under this metric.
-
Organizations that sell different types of products/services should consider reporting separately against each different product/service.
