Requirements: POP.3 Support for Notification and Response (Function)

Active as of 2024-06-01
Statement N:

Upon notification by an external, authoritative source of a health risk within the cared-for population, alert relevant providers regarding specific potentially at-risk patients with the appropriate level of notification.

 Description I:

After receiving a notice of a health risk within a cared-for population from public health authorities or other external authoritative sources:*Identify and notify individual care providers or care managers that a risk has been identified and requires attention; and *Provide suggestions on the appropriate course of action.

A care provider now has the ability to decide how patients are notified, if necessary. For example, this function may be used after detection of a local outbreak of hepatitis A, advising providers of the at-risk population and potential prophylactic treatment. A second example might be the dissemination of new care guidelines for elderly patients with a specific chronic disease.

Notifications to clinicians or patients may occur by telephone, email, FAX or other methods.
