HEDIS on FHIR: NCQA’s digital transformation
summary
NCQA converts HEDIS from paper to executable CQL, currently shipping 23 digital measures and authoring libraries reusable across measures. Tooling includes FSH and Synthea for examples, a VS Code extension and a full Visual Studio pipeline using the Firely CQL SDK, running tests on both the reference (MITRE) engine and Firely. Certification uses test decks up to 150,000 patients and an Azure DevOps CI that runs roughly 2,000 unit tests before deployment.
