Figure 6. Highest-Risk Patients as of 6/30/99: MMP vs non-MMP. Figure 6 illustrates % LDL measured and % LDL managed to 130 mg/dL and 100 mg/dL for highest-risk patients categorized by MMP patients, non-MMP patients, and total KPNW patients. For LDL measurement, and in each case of LDL management, a higher percentage of MMP patients achieved goal compared to non-MMP patients therapy (% measured 99.1% vs 67.9%, % LDL 130 mg/dL 91.4% vs 67.6% and % LDL 100 mg/dL 68.0% vs 45.4%). These higher improvements in LDL measurement and management by the MMP account for KPNW's leading quality position in lipid management.
