Mini-Profiles now available to members to review billings

March 28, 2018

Your 2016 individualized Mini-Profile is now available to you online

The profile gives you the information to identify whether your billings are within the normal statistical boundaries of your peer group so that you can address any potential issues quickly and early. It is important because: 

  • Understanding the flags on your profile can assist you in determining whether you need to make changes to your billings. 
  • Reviewing your profile can alert you to a potential issue with your flagged measures that could be avoided.

The online Mini-Profile does this by providing you with statistics based on your Medical Services Plan (MSP) payments for services provided in the 2016 calendar year, including any settlements or retroactive payments issued as of March 31, 2017.  

Included in the data are claims paid by MSP, on behalf of ICBC and WCB. In addition, the GPSC and SSC fee codes are now reflected in your profile. 

The profiles are an accurate reflection of claims submissions and payments made in the claims record, which identified you as the physician who provided the service, or in the case of referred services, identified you as the referring practitioner.  

Your comparison group is the province-wide peer group into which you have been placed for 2016, and is determined by the type of services that you were paid for during that year.

The Mini-Profile is just one of the ways in which Doctors of BC provides value to our members.
