InterQual evidence-based criteria will support eQHealth’s high-quality care coordination and utilization review

December 9, 2015 — eQHealth Solutions, a non-profit healthcare technology and population health management company, has signed a long-term agreement to continue its use of McKesson’s InterQual and CareEnhance Review Manager. eQHealth will use InterQual evidence-based clinical criteria for its state Medicaid contracts in Florida, Illinois, Mississippi and Colorado, in addition to its other commercial lines.

The InterQual Level of Care criteria suite, Behavioral Health criteria suite and InterQual Care Planning procedures, imaging and molecular diagnostics criteria will continue to assist eQHealth in reducing costs and improving care quality.
