Ensuring the quality of care through documentation

HEDIS1 Provider Guide and Toolkit
The National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) develops and maintains a set of performance measures in the managed care industry referred to as Healthcare Effectiveness Data Information Set (HEDIS). These measures allow consumers to compare health plan performance to national or regional benchmarks.
Several HEDIS measures relate to behavioral health and assist providers with improving member outcomes. We have created the HEDIS provider toolkit with educational materials and additional resources to guarantee your success.
