1.15.2017 Statin Therapy for Patients With Cardiovascular Disease There appear to be additional NDC codes for high- and moderate-intensity statins included in the NDC list for SPD-A that are not in SPC-B. May these additional codes be mapped to the HEDIS 2017 NDC list for table SPC-B?

Yes. Organizations may map NDC codes so that the same set of codes for high-intensity and moderate-intensity statins are used for both the SPC-B and SPD-A measures. An NDC code that is not on the HEDIS list may be used if its generic name, strength/dose and route match an NDC code on the HEDIS list. Organizations should document the method used to map codes: Mapping is subject to review during a HEDIS Compliance Audit. Requirements for mapping are described in General Guideline 50 in HEDIS 2017 Volume 2.
