Buying Value Benchmark Repository Measure Submission Survey

Introduction

The Buying Value Repository Measure Submission Survey enables state purchasers and regional health improvement collaboratives to submit measures for inclusion in the Buying Value Benchmark Repository Spreadsheet. It is intended as a resource for states and regional health collaboratives to use for benchmarking purposes, although states and regional health improvement collaboratives do not need to have performance data available to submit measures to the repository. States and regional health collaboratives may also find the repository useful for measure selection.

The data you submit will be uploaded to the Buying Value Benchmark Repository Spreadsheet, an Excel-based tool for use by states and regional health improvement collaboratives. The following measures are included in the Repository:

Homegrown measures and
Non-HEDIS measures that are not homegrown and for which benchmark data (e.g., through the CDC or CMS) are not available (e.g., the "Tobacco Use: Screening and Cessation" measure from CMS).

While there is a quality control process in place before a measure is included in the tool, the administrators will not proof each entry to ensure that data were collected or analyzed in alignment with any regional, state, or national guidelines.
