1.16.2013 General Guidelines Is there a deadline for updating administrative rates with new sources of supplemental data?

Yes, the December Update included a modification to the audit timeline that requires all supplemental database activities be concluded by 5/1 in the reporting year. NCQA requires this deadline to allow sufficient time for audit review and possible corrections. The update should be made in the HEDIS Audit Timeline in Volume 5, on page 52 and in Volume 2, on page 17. This sentence should be added: "Auditor finalizes approval of Supplemental Databases, policies, procedures, and content (data)." by May 1.
