Quality & Care Gaps

Turn Care Gaps Into Coordinated Action.

Identify prospective quality opportunities at the member level, surface them while intervention can still make a difference, coordinate the work needed to address them, and verify closure from qualifying evidence.

Prospective opportunities

Surface the right member while there is still time to act.

Burse™ evaluates each member prospectively against the applicable measure criteria. Members who qualify for the denominator are checked for exclusions and evidence that the standard of care has already been met. When an actionable opportunity remains, Burse can place it on the worklist a configurable number of days before the member-specific due date or measure-window expiration.

The focus is prospective action—not retrospective measure-rate reporting or historical provider-performance analytics.
01 · Determine Eligibility

Is the member in the denominator?

Evaluate the member against the applicable prospective measure criteria to determine whether the measure applies.

02 · Check Exclusions & Existing Care

Is this still an actionable opportunity?

Determine whether the member is excluded or whether available evidence already shows the applicable standard of care has been met.

03 · Determine When to Surface

Bring the opportunity forward at the right time.

Use the member-specific due date or measure-window expiration and the client's configured lead time to determine when the opportunity enters the worklist.

04 · Create Accountable Work

Turn the open opportunity into action.

Give the responsible team the member context, goals, Intake work, Follow-Up work, outreach, and provider coordination needed to address the gap.

Member opportunity

Show why the gap exists—and why the care is appropriate for this member.

Burse™ gives the user the evidence behind the prospective opportunity so they can understand why the gap is open and what action is appropriate before they act.

Measure / Gap
Breast Cancer Screening

Member meets the prospective denominator criteria and no qualifying screening evidence is currently available.

Why Open
No qualifying mammography evidence identified within the applicable measurement window.
Relevant Evidence
  • Eligible age / measure criteria
  • Applicable clinical history
  • Existing claims or clinical evidence reviewed
  • Exclusions evaluated
Recommended Action
Confirm whether screening was completed outside available data or coordinate appropriate screening outreach.
Member-specific action plan

Turn each open gap into measurable, member-specific work.

For each prospective opportunity, Burse™ uses the measure, member data, and available evidence to generate the goals, Intake tasks, and Follow-Up tasks needed to move the opportunity toward resolution.

Goals

Define the intended outcome

Connect the opportunity to the member-specific outcome the workflow is trying to achieve and define what success should look like for this member.

Intake

Act on what can happen now

Confirm the current status, assess available evidence, coordinate outreach or scheduling, communicate with the member or care team, and assign accountable work.

Follow-Up

Return verification when it is due

Bring unresolved work, future verification, provider follow-up, or evidence review back to the responsible user when action or time has passed.

A critical distinction

Completing the task is not the same as closing the gap.

Quality operations need both states. Operational work records what the responsible team did; qualifying evidence determines whether the applicable gap-in-care criteria were actually satisfied.

Task Completion

The operational work was completed.

The responsible user completed the required outreach, assessment, scheduling, coordination, documentation, or follow-up activity.

Gap Closure

Qualifying evidence shows the measure criteria were satisfied.

Claims, pharmacy, laboratory, or clinical evidence demonstrates that the applicable gap-in-care criteria have been met. Gap closure is based on evidence—not simply completion of the assigned work.

If qualifying closure evidence arrives while operational work remains open, Burse can resolve the gap while preserving the activity history.
Accountable workflow

Keep the opportunity moving until qualifying evidence closes the gap.

Burse™ keeps prospective opportunities visible as accountable work, with the member context, next action, follow-up, and closure state available to the users responsible for moving them forward.

1
Surface

Bring the prospective opportunity onto the worklist at the configured time.

2
Understand

Show why the gap is open, the relevant evidence, and the appropriate action.

3
Act

Member & provider action

Coordinate the work needed to address the gap.

Member outreach
Authorized family/caregiver communication where appropriate
Provider outreach
