Behavior Health Training
BH HEDIS Training
Education and Resources by Behavioral Health
The Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS®) provides a standardized set of measures from the National Committee of Quality Assurance (NCQA) to measure clinical quality performance. HEDIS® helps Health Plans and network providers to understand the quality of care being delivered to members, identify network performance gaps, and drive the design of programs and interventions to improve quality care and outcomes.
Several new on-demand training opportunities in support of behavioral health (BH) HEDIS measures are now available. These trainings allow Buckeye Health Plan to share strategies to positively impact quality care and outcomes for our members, as well as assist providers in recognizing the intent of the (BH) HEDIS measures and BH Experience of Care and Health Outcomes (ECHO) Survey.
The trainings are each 8-20 minutes in length and are valuable resources for medical and behavioral health providers, including licensed and unlicensed healthcare professionals and office staff. Click on the links to register and view the trainings.

HEDIS (Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set) is a set of standardized performance measures by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) which allows direct, objective comparison of quality across health plans. This month we are spotlighting the two HEDIS measures that focus on adult members adherence to prescribed psychiatric medication: AMM and SAA.
Antidepressant Medication Management (AMM) focuses on members 18 years of age and older who have a diagnosis of major depression and who were treated and remained on an antidepressant medication. The effective acute phase treatment measures members who remained on an antidepressant medication for at least 84 days and the effective continuation phase treatment measures members who remained on an antidepressant medication for at least 180 days.
Adherence to Antipsychotic Medications for Individuals with Schizophrenia (SAA) focuses on adult members with schizophrenia or schizoaffective disorder who were dispensed and remained on antipsychotic medication for at least 80% of their treatment period.
Educating members on importance of remaining on medication helps improve both the AMM and SAA measure. Please view the training for medical and behavioral health providers on AMM and SAA members and strategies to improve AMM and SAA Adherence.
