10 What is NCQA The National Committee for Quality Assurance is an independent, not-for-profit organization dedicated to improving health care quality NCQA accomplishes this in three ways: 1. Through accreditation (a rigorous on-site review of clinical and administrative processes) 2. Through HEDIS data collection; and 3. Through a comprehensive member satisfaction survey Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems More than half the nation s MCOs participate in accreditation and certification programs, and almost 90% report HEDIS measures
11 What is NCQA? National Committee for Quality Assurance Mission: To improve the quality of health care Vision: To transform health care quality through measurement, transparency and accountability Values: NCQA s passion is improving the quality of health care They stand for accountability throughout the health care system NCQA s information empowers people to make informed decisions They are committed to providing excellent service to all customers, both internal and external They realize their mission through the invaluable commitment and contributions of diverse stakeholders
12 What is HEDIS Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set is a tool used to measure performance on important dimensions of care and service HEDIS consists of 90+ measures across eight domains of care and accounts for 46 out of 100 points in the accreditation process HEDIS is designed to provide purchasers and consumers with the information they need to reliably compare the performance of health care plans Quality Compass is a comparison tool that allows users to view plan results and benchmark information
13 What is HEDIS? HEDIS was initially developed in 1991 NCQA assumed management in 1992 HEDIS incorporated into Managed Care Organization accreditation in 1999 The performance measures in HEDIS are related to many significant public health issues such as cancer, immunizations, heart disease, smoking, asthma and diabetes
14 Why do HEDIS? Requirement NCQA accreditation Employee Trust Fund (ETF) Office of the Commissioner of Insurance (OCI) Department of Human Services (DHS) Employers and agents use HEDIS data to compare health plans and make decisions NCQA Health Plan Rankings and report cards ETF information packets Consumer Reports Top Health Plans Ranking Quality will be an important issue for insurance exchanges
15 Measurement Results What drives changes to the HEDIS rates? Internal Ongoing quality improvement interventions by the HMO and its providers External -- public interest, media-driven education, unforeseeable external events such as flu vaccine shortage Interventions initiated within the measurement year Data-gathering process Measure specification changes

18 HEDIS High Level Tasks Purchase software or develop internal software Administrative data comes from claims (medical, pharmacy), lab sources, P4P data, and Wisconsin Immunization Registry (WIR). Hybrid data comes from chart review Year long process of clinical improvement
19 How HEDIS Data is Used Disease Management Programs Wellness Initiatives Pay-for-Performance Provider Incentives Help focus on improving HEDIS scores CAHPS data used to identify service improvements Marketing HMO s use HEDIS rates to measure the efficacy of ongoing and current quality improvement efforts and to identify improvement opportunities
