Asthma remains a major public health issue in the U.S., with many patients still uncontrolled despite available treatments and evidence-based guidelines. This leads to preventable ER visits, hospitalizations and significant costs—over $80 billion annually. The NCQA has updated HEDIS® for 2026 to include a new measure, Follow-Up After Acute and Urgent Care Visits for Asthma (AAF-E), which tracks if patients ages 5–64 receive an outpatient follow-up within 30 days after an asthma-related urgent or emergency visit. This educational activity is designed to increase awareness of the new HEDIS measure to improve outcomes of patients being treated for asthma for both managed care professionals and primary care providers.
