URAC Wellness Standard 6 -- Other Sources of Participant Information

This standard speaks to the data analytic capacity of the organization by requiring that you can use additional, credible sources of data along with the risk assessment tool in your stratification of the target population.:

Thus, in this standard, URAC hopes to insure that URAC-accredited wellness programs be able to respond to a purchaser's request to include information in addition to screening results in its stratification of the target population.  

One can anticipate that the documentation required to demonstrate compliance with this standard will include a program description and two or three examples of the use of such information in population stratification.  The onsite review is likely to focus on an interview with those in the wellness organization who are most familiar with the data analytic capacity of the organization.
