Healthy Michigan Plan (MHP) Health Risk Assessment

HMP beneficiaries enrolled in a health plan under the Medicaid program. MDHHS has instituted the use of a standard Health Risk Assessment (HRA) for this population which providers are encouraged to complete.


The beneficiary and provider each have separate sections to complete on the HRA:

  • Beneficiaries are encouraged to complete sections 1-3 of the HRA and to contact their primary care provider (PCP) within 60 days of enrollment to schedule an appointment.
  • Practitioners are instructed to complete section 4 (pages 4-5) of the HRA within 150 days of member enrollment, and annually thereafter.
