The National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) ensures the quality of client care using defined standards. Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS) is a performance measurement tool millions of health insurance plans use. HEDIS includes six domains of care:

Effectiveness of Care
Access/Availability of Care
Experience of Care
Utilization and Risk Adjusted Utilization
Health Plan Descriptive Information
Measures Collected Using Electronic Clinical Data Systems
Select one NCQA HEDIS measure related to your future practice area. Use the Nurse Practitioner Quality Measures Worksheet to complete the assignment.

Follow APA grammar, spelling, word usage, and punctuation rules consistent with formal, scholarly writing.
