Are you qualified to do any of the above?
You get a yearly physical and see a dermatologist twice a year. I get a yearly physical but don't see a dermatologist at all. Given that you visit an office three times as often as I do (or more if you have to contact the PCP for the dermatologist referral) shouldn't your score be higher than mine? I honestly don't know the answer to that which is why I would not think to ask about my score.

Exactly! It is useless, extraneous information for the medical consumer that really doesn't involve or impact them. I doubt that CMS, an MA plan, or TVH would waste time and resources to have a method of informing them of a score that really isn't much of their business in the first place.
