MEDS Alerts Tracking Reports

The DHCS requires counties to process 95 percent of HPPS Recon MEDS alerts. Without direct access to MEDS data, MEDS Alerts Tracking Reports were developed as a tool to monitor the compliance with HPPS MEDS alert by obtaining the alert status from the system.

The seventeen (17) HPPS Recon MEDS alerts are 0005, 0007, 0014, 1501, 1502, 1503, 1504, 1510, 2003, 2005, 2060, 2078, 2196, 6005, 6006, 6008, and 6016. For a complete list of all HPPS MEDS alerts, refer to What to do with a MEDS Alert document on the Program web page, MEDS Reference Materials.

The Recon MEDS Alerts Tracking reports can be retrieved from BI under the path: Public Folders/DEBS/Special Projects/MEDS Data Accuracy.
