The Future of HEDIS

5 Topics and Themes

The future of HEDIS focuses on 5 core ideas:

• Allowable Adjustments: New flexibility lets users modify measures without changing their clinical intent.
• Licensing and Certification: Updated requirements ensure accuracy of measure results.
• Digital Measures: HEDIS specifications that download directly into users’ data systems bring new ease.
• Electronic Clinical Data Systems (ECDS): This new reporting method helps clinical data create insight for managing the health of individuals and groups.
• Schedule Change: A new schedule gives users more time by giving them complete measure specs sooner—11 months earlier than the current timeline.
