The Evolving Quality Measurement Landscape
As NCQA advances the shift toward digital quality measurement, health plans face a critical challenge: ensuring clinical data is not just accessible, but complete. This executive brief explores how the transition from traditional HEDIS® hybrid reporting to Electronic Clinical Data Systems (ECDS) and digital quality measures is reshaping quality operations, compliance, and performance.
It examines the role of FHIR-based interoperability, standardized measure logic, and year-round quality monitoring while highlighting a frequently overlooked risk—the clinical evidence embedded in unstructured medical records. Without capturing this information, health plans may miss critical insights that affect quality scores and CMS Star Ratings.
Discover four priorities for health plan leaders: FHIR readiness, vendor and partner alignment, parallel reporting, and clinical data completeness. Learn why successful digital transformation requires more than connected systems—it requires complete clinical intelligence to support accurate measurement and better outcomes.
