Introduction
You already provide excellent care . However, without the correct data, your performance may not be measured accurately .
The Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS®) is the most widely used set of performance measures in the
managed care industry . HEDIS measures are used for reporting and improving the quality of care provided to patients .
HEDIS is maintained by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) . The measure set is updated on an annual basis
in adherence with best practices . HEDIS 2017 is comprised of 91 measures across 7 domains of care . HAP uses key measures
from this set to assess quality throughout the provider community . Providing excellent care and needed services is only half
of the performance measurement equation . Without the appropriate data these measures cannot be calculated accurately .
There are three ways to ensure that HAP receives the necessary data for measurement:
• Medical and Pharmacy Claims
– This is the primary source for identifying which members belong to which populations . This guide provides
information on the diagnosis and procedure codes required to meet measure guidelines .
• Electronic Data Sources
– Some information isn’t available through billed claims . Electronic Medical Records, and sources like state registries,
are the next most important component of measurement and help to fill these gaps in information . These sources
could include valuable information such as lab and vital sign results . HAP incentivizes provider organizations to
provide this data . This guide provides specifications for the data that is shared between us . HAP also collects
information from the following sources:
• Joint Venture Hospital Laboratories (JVHL) offers lab services for many of HAP’s affiliated providers . The
results of these lab services are sent to HAP .
• Michigan Care Improvement Registry (MCIR) is a statewide registry for collecting information on immunizations
for all children and adolescents . Payers and Providers can query MCIR for services that are due .
• Chart Collection allows HAP to collect information which may not be in any of the above sources . This takes place in
two different phases:
– Ongoing Supplemental Chart Collection: Throughout the year, HAP collects medical records for information that
may still not be available via EMR feeds or medical claims . The primary focus of this initiative is to collect cancer
screenings and exclusions to measures, where the service dates may predate EMR implementation .
– Annual Hybrid Chart Review: Many measures are difficult to collect all of the information needed, even after
all of the above sources are exhausted . A sample of the HAP population is drawn and HAP is allowed to do more
targeted medical record review . HAP may fax medical record requests, or even visit offices in person, during the
first part of the year for review of the prior year’s results . This guide provides information on the specific measures
and data elements that HAP is seeking during this review period .
Your HEDIS results are not only important to HAP for data accuracy, but to your patients as well . HAP uses HEDIS data to
determine which members are in need of screenings and to provide educational programs and materials . Your participation
in transmitting HEDIS data is vital to our mission of enhancing the health and well-being of the lives we touch . Additional
questions regarding coding and FTP connectivity can be directed to HAP’s Provider Relations department at (313) 664-8075 .

Annual HEDIS Chart Review
Why chart reviews?
Many of the performance measures found in this guide are collected using administrative data from health care service
claims . However, there are many measures that must also be supplemented with hybrid data through the abstraction or
review of medical records .
We thank you and your office staff for your support and cooperation in the success of this endeavor .
When does this occur?
January–May of each year .
What measures are reviewed?
In the following pages, each measure will be listed along with descriptions of what type of information is being reviewed .
Why the January–May timeline?
This is a non-negotiable timeframe set by NCQA .
What is the process?
HAP contracts with a vendor to conduct the medical record reviews on its behalf . HAP provides a random sample of physician
offices to the vendor, who will then schedule and conduct the medical record reviews .
The vendor will:
• Contact each physician office directly to schedule an onsite review of selected member medical records or to request
that a record be faxed back
• Scan or copy records for data validation
• Provide all of the medical record data collected to HAP
HAP will:
• Work closely with the vendor to ensure that it conducts all reviews in accordance with HIPAA and HAP’s
confidentiality standards
What about HIPAA?
The HIPAA Privacy Rule allows HAP and its contracted vendors to review and collect this information without member
consent, as it pertains to treatment, payment and health care operations .

Key Measures
Preventive Care (Adult)
Adult BMI (ABA)
Members between 18 and 74 years old who had an outpatient visit and whose body mass index (BMI) was documented
during the measurement year or the year prior .
Codes to identify BMI:
Description ICD-10-CM
BMI less than 19 Z68 .1
BMI between 20-29 .9 Z68 .20-Z68 .29
BMI between 30-39 .9 Z68 .30-Z68 .39

BMI Percentile Z68 .5-Z68 .54
Dated documentation (annually) of height, weight and BMI percentile for adults age 18-19
Dated documentation (annually) of weight and BMI value for adults age 20-74
Common Chart Deficiencies:
• Height and/or weight are documented but there is no calculation of BMI value, the BMI percentile or plotted
on an age growth chart
• A range was given or threshold to be met . Each patient must have a distinct BMI value, percentage or plotted
on an age growth chart

Members 66 years and older who had each of the following during the measurement year:
• Advance Care Planning
• Medication Review
• Functional Status Assessment and
• Pain Assessment

exercise, or ability to perform a job)
• Pain Assessment-one (1) of following:
– Notation that patient was assessed for pain
– Results of assessment using a standardized pain assessment tool (Numeric rating scales, FLACC scale,
verbal descriptor scales, pain thermometer, etc .)
Tips:
• Asking a member if an Advance Care Plan is in place and member stating it is not in place is
not sufficient
• Medication review must be by a prescribing practitioner and/or pharmacist
• Review of a side effects for a single medication at time of prescription does not meet criteria
• Functional status assessment limited to an acute or single condition, event or body system does not meet
criteria
• Notation of pain management plan alone does not meet criteria
• Notation of pain treatment plan alone does not meet criteria
• Notation of screening of chest pain alone or documentation of chest pain does not meet criteria .
• Should be done annually

Osteoporosis Management in Women Who Had a Fracture (OMW)
Women 67-85 years of age who suffered a fracture and who had either a bone mineral density (BMD) test or a prescription for
a drug to treat or prevent osteoporosis in the six months after the fracture .
Special attention should be taken not to submit claims with acute fracture diagnoses for old (healed) fractures . This will
ensure that the appropriate population is selected and the reported rate is accurate .
ICD-10-CM provides specific codes to capture a history of a fracture that is now healed . They can be located under the
following term and subterms in the ICD-10-CM Alphabetic Index:
History
• Personal (of)
• Fracture (healed)
• There are multiple code choices based on the documented cause of the healed fracture such as osteoporosis,
traumatic, stress, etc .
For current, acute fractures that are receiving active treatment or are still in the healing stages and receiving subsequent
treatment, ICD-10 provides specific codes to capture details of the fracture including the type and location of the injury,
encounter, stage of healing, and any complications . All codes assigned must be supported by the provider’s documentation in
the medical record . Please refer to the ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting for further instructions .
