Health plans throughout the United States rely on the Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS) as a quality measure. HEDIS compares how well health plans perform in three key areas: quality of care, access to care, and patient satisfaction with the health plan and doctors. CMS created quality standards for health care facilities, as well as health care providers. The 1998 Pew Health Professions Commission recommended 21 competencies for health care professionals. The Magnet Recognition Program recognizes health care organizations that achieve excellence in nursing practice.
