Summary
CalViva Health is promoting advanced access scheduling that prioritizes same-day appointments to help primary care physicians meet regulatory timely access requirements. Qualified PCPs who implement this scheduling model will automatically meet the annual Provider Appointment Availability Survey (PAAS) for three consecutive years.
Action Required
Immediately: Primary care providers should email CalViva Health at the provided contact if they offer same-day appointments or need help setting up advanced access scheduling. Front desk staff should review the Improve Patient Satisfaction With Advanced Access flyer (PDF) to understand implementation benefits. This helps automatically meet PAAS compliance for three years and reduces administrative paperwork.
