The Washington State Health Care Authority (HCA) implements health status risk adjustment and continues to refine the process by adapting a set of guiding principles that include being practical and feasible, focusing on data that are advantageous to plans, and assuring proper safeguards to protect individuals' rights to privacy on health status information. The groups also focus on refinement, rather than reinvention, and aim for better not for the best.
