InterQual Interim Update

Our annual InterQual 2013 release rolled out four months ago, and the feedback from our clients has been very positive.  With every annual InterQual release, we identify additional criteria that we would like to enhance, correct and clarify.  As a result, we are planning an interim update targeted for mid-August.  Clinical Revisions documents have been posted to the MHS Customer Hub for the impacted products.  Additionally, for InterQual Level of Care Criteria book clients, we will upload a PDF-formatted file of impacted criteria pages to the MHS Customer Hub and to McKesson Download Central in mid-August.  You will be able to print these pages and insert them into your binders, replacing the current pages. Complete instructions will be included in the PDF-formatted file, and video instructions will be available on MHS Customer Hub
