Hedis Tech specs help new hire please

Specialties Quality Improvement

Hi, I just got hired to do hedis this year. I was wondering if there is a way to get the info i need to suceed at this specifically how to get familiar with the tech specs. I am a newer nurse, RN licensed in 2012, previously an LPN since 2010. I worked in a major hospital (Yale) and was injured with a clinical career ending injury. I actually have ehlers danlos but the injury really bought it out and the injuries didn't heal well so my medical restrictions don't allow me to practice hands on clinical nursing. I don't have enough experience to do most of the nonclinical nursing but I can chart and I did do some auditing while on light duty after the accident.

Long story short, I was just wondering how I get more comfortable with the Hedis tech specs so I can do well at this because I really need this. I took the test for the job which wanted 1 year of experience. I passed the test with a great score but it let me know that I need to get familiar with the specs. asside from paying hundreds for the book, is there any other way to get familiar. I am taking coding now so i am familiar with coding already. But being familar with the specs would save me so much time.

Stationary work is really all I can do now. I really really need this. This company hires for Hedis season but they also have fulltime permanent positions and hedis would give me a foot into the company for when I finish my coding education.
