Performance Measure

Is information that shows how well a health plan provides a certain treatment, test, or other health care service to its members. For example, Medicare uses performance measures from NCQA's Health Plan Employer Data and Information Set (HEDIS®) to get information on how well health plans perform in quality, how easy it is to get care, and members' satisfaction with the health plan and its doctors.
