HEDIS measure tip sheets updated for 2020
We’ve updated our HEDIS® tip sheets** for 2020 and posted them on the Clinical Quality Corner page of web-DENIS, along with a series of Star Measure Tips that were posted earlier this year. The tip sheets were developed to assist health care providers and their staff in their efforts to improve overall health care quality and prevent or control diseases and chronic conditions.
The Star Measure Tips highlight select measures related to the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services’ five-star quality rating system. Most of the Star measures are also HEDIS measures. HEDIS is one of the most widely used performance improvement tools in the U.S.
