Diabetic Retinopathy
Fundus Camera
Diabetes & Retinopathy
Diabetic Retinopathy is an eye condition that can cause vision loss and blindness in people who have diabetes.
95% of Medicare Advantage plan members with diabetes were monitored for kidney disease1
Only 52% of diabetes patients in the managed security service provider (MSSP) ACO program was documented to have had a diabetes eye exam1
By implementing eye exams, PCP and Medicare Advantage plans can bring STAR/HEDIS compliant eye exams to patients at the point-of-care

Close Care Gap
The Fundus Eye Exam. A fundus camera should not be confused with an ophthalmoscope eye exam. 50% of diabetic patients lack documentation of a true retinal eye exam, which requires a specific medical device known as a fundus camera. The primary reasons may be due to the lack of access but most health plans and physician groups are interested in bringing HEDIS compliant eye exams directly to the patient. Consolidating this exam in a primary care clinic saves time, co-pays, and frustration. Our new technology can allow you to have a comprehensive retinal exam (without the use of dilating drops) and complete the exam in about 2-minutes from start to finish.
A fundus eye exam is critical to preventing and treating eye conditions that could potentially lead to vision loss like:
Diabetic retinopathy
High blood pressure
Macular degeneration
Retinal detachment
Glaucoma
Eye tumors
Diabetic Retinopathy is the most common cause of vision loss for people with diabetes:
More than 2 in 5 Americans with diabetes have some stage of diabetic retinopathy
There are NO symptoms in the early stages of the disease
95% of vision loss can be prevented with early detection
50% of Americans with diabetes are not tested for Diabetic Retinopathy
