HUG Helps You Get the
Most Out of HEDIS

August 22, 2022 · Andy Reynolds

How do you stay current on something as big and dynamic as the Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS)?

It’s hard to keep up, considering HEDIS’s expanding:

  • Breadth: compose the measure set. Those measures span 17 domains and subdomains of health care.
  • Reach: More than 200 million people are enrolled in health plans that use HEDIS. That means HEDIS monitors the quality of care for more than 60 percent of the US population.
  • Influence: Auditing and validation of HEDIS results give payers and providers the confidence to trust HEDIS as the basis of most value-based contracting.

A structured, reliable way to stay up to date is to join the HEDIS Users Group (HUG).
