Re: Anyone doing HEDIS???
To Flexnurse - HEDIS is a healthcare quality study that looks at access to health care and health care delivery. The focus is on preventive health issues - immunizations, prenatal care, HTN control - to name a few. Medicare, medicaid, and general/group health plans all participate in this study annually. Briefly - field staff visit physician offices and abstract information from pt records specific to a measure under study (eg

renatal care visits). The method of conducting the data collection and your time commitment varies by the employer -we work with FT and PT and are flexible with hours, schedules, etc. Our staff sets up their own appointments so that part of the job is from home. The visit to office sites require local travel (w/in 30 miles or so). If interested I can talk more about this in person.
To dec12 and wareagle31: we're not working with remote review at this point, have done so in the past tho. Will keep you in mind if the option comes up.
Thanks!
