1 Quality Measures Guide Medicare Star Rating and HEDIS measures February 2018

2 About the Quality Measures Guide A key component of our Quality Program is Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS) reporting. HEDIS is a set of standardized performance measures developed by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) that was designed to measure the care and service provided by health plans, evaluate health plans effectiveness of care, access, use of services and member satisfaction. Each year, we are required to report information on the quality of care our patients receive to various sources for our Medicare and commercial members. The majority of HEDIS information is from claims; however, medical record results are also incorporated into our data. The medical records chosen for review are based on statistically valid samples of patients who meet criteria for inclusion in the HEDIS measure being reviewed. As providers, you can help facilitate and support the HEDIS process by: Providing the appropriate care within the designated timeframes Documenting all care in the patient s medical record Accurately coding all claims and encounters, including submitting results via CPT level II codes whenever possible. This guide is designed to share information about the criteria for the HEDIS measures, including the various codes and documentation required to meet compliance for each measure. Medicare Star Ratings are impacted by HEDIS scores for particular measures. In this guide, the Medicare Star Rating related measures are listed first, followed by all measures that impact commercial and Medicare patients. The diagnosis and/or procedure codes in this guide are in compliance with the HEDIS 2018 Volume 2 Technical Specifications, which apply to dates of service in HEDIS is a registered trademark of NCQA. Reimbursement for these services will be in accordance with the terms and conditions of your agreement with us. Quality Measures Guide Page 1 Revised February 2018
