HEDIS provider guides 

In our efforts to support our providers, Blue Shield of California has developed the Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS®) Provider Guides to assist providers and their office and billing staff in successfully maximizing their quality performance scores. 

These guides provide concise information on the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) HEDIS measures along with resources that will help improve health outcomes

Please note that the HEDIS Provider Guides are based on the most recent HEDIS technical specifications and are subject to change based on guidance from NCQA and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS).  Please refer to the appropriate agency for additional guidance.
