Health Advocate Achieves NCQA Certification for the Ninth Consecutive Year

Health Advocate, recognized as a key player in health advocacy and navigation, proudly announces its successful recertification by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) for its measure protocols concerning the Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS). This marks the ninth consecutive year that the organization has been acknowledged for its exceptional analytics underpinning its Health Insights Dashboard™.

In an era where advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) often overshadow traditional methods, Alyssa Scott, Ph.D., Chief Analytics Officer at Health Advocate, emphasizes the significance of leveraging trusted metrics to achieve meaningful health outcomes. “What truly drives progress in health is grounded in evidence-based metrics and the ability to sustain behavioral changes,” she expressed. Health Advocate’s commitment to enhancing lives through measurable impacts remains the cornerstone of its mission.

The NCQA certification specifically recognizes the logical algorithms that facilitate key health screenings, including breast and cervical cancer screenings, as well as colorectal cancer screenings. Notably, the measure for cervical cancer screening has successfully met the newly established Electronic Clinical Data Systems (ECDS) reporting requirements, showcasing Health Advocate's ongoing investment in digital capabilities aligned with industry standards.

The Health Insights Dashboard™, a customizable platform, is vital for employers, health plans, and consultants seeking to evaluate population risk and identify clinical intervention opportunities. It plays a crucial role in the organization's population health strategy, enabling personalized outreach and chronic condition program management while effectively monitoring progress.
