What is HEDIS, and what does it measure?

Developed by the NCQA, HEDIS includes more than 30 measures across six domains of healthcare.

The six domains include:

1. Effectiveness of care: Evaluates patients' quality of care, including preventive care like mammogram screenings, chronic disease management, and other aspects of care.

2. Access/availability of care: Measures the accessibility and availability of healthcare services, including timely access to care, availability of appointments, and other factors affecting access to care.

3. Experience of care:Assesses the quality of patient care and identifies areas for improvement, including provider communication, customer service, coordination of care, and a patient’s overall satisfaction with their health plan.

4. Utilization and risk-adjusted utilization:Evaluates if patients use healthcare services appropriately and how resources are used, including measuring the use of preventive services, high-cost services, and other factors affecting utilization.

5. Measures reported using electronic clinical data systems:Calculates healthcare services' results, including patient satisfaction, health status, and other factors affecting health outcomes
