Self-reporting provider organizations (POs) have until April 22 to review your data submissions before sending them to your auditors. Please make sure you’ve included all the measures you’ve chosen to report and double-check your data for accuracy.
Thank you in advance for taking the extra time to validate your self-reported results. IHA is dedicated to giving you accurate results, but unfortunately, we can’t accept appeals for incorrect results caused by PO self-reporting errors.
Please note, test files to FinThrive are also due by April 22.

Onpoint data pathway
April 17: Sign off on Enhanced Validation Report I (EVR I) and review Mid Cycle Measure Trending Report (MTR)
The MTR and EVR are essential parts of IHA’s holistic approach to data quality to help catch issues further upstream.
EVR provides plans a glimpse into trends in claims data
MTR provides plans an opportunity to review measure results using a rolling four quarters of data (Q3 2022- Q2 2023 with Q3 2023 runout)
Health plans received the EVR I report with instructions for review and sign off via email on March 22nd. MTR findings that require further investigation from the health plan were included with the EVR I email, if applicable. Please feel free to reach out to Onpoint and/or the AMP Client Success Manager if you have any questions or concerns.
April 30: Submit Q1 2024 data files and 2023 Annual Member Identifier file
Health plans have until April 30 to submit Q1 2024 data files and the 2023 Annual Member Identifier file.
Q1 2024 data submission should include monthly eligibility between January 1, 2024 and March 31, 2024 and all claims paid or changed through March 31, 2024 that have not been previously submitted.
The Annual Member Identifier file should include eligible members enrolled for at least one day between 1/1/23-12/21/23 and are included in your eligibility file submissions (no continuous enrollment criteria apply).
