Services
The HealthMeasures team supports the use of state-of-the-science measurement systems–PROMIS®, Neuro-QoL™, NIH Toolbox®, and ASCQ-Me®–through a combination of software solutions, licensing and permissions, research tools, and expert consultation.
Software & Licensing
HealthMeasures are available through a range of software solutions and licensing options.
Assessment Center API
The API is a secure, locally installed plug-in measure library that integrates computer adaptive tests (CATs), short forms, and profiles into your digital platform, app, or data collection system with automatic scoring and score interpretation. Many platforms, including REDCap, have integrated the API to make HealthMeasures available to their users.

Epic PROMIS Application
PROMIS CATs, short forms, and profiles are available within Epic’s native questionnaire functionality with automatic scoring and score interpretation. License the Epic PROMIS application through Epic’s Showroom.

NIH Toolbox iPad App
The NIH Toolbox iPad App enables tablet-based administration of NIH Toolbox Cognition, Emotion, Motor, and Sensation tests in research and clinical settings. The app is available for download and purchase through Apple’s App Store.

Static Forms
Static short forms and profiles are available as respondent-ready PDFs for paper or digital administration when one of the above platforms is not used. For digital administration, the HealthMeasures Electronic Administration Permission (HEAP) process provides a permission letter and screenshot review to ensure validity is retained.

Permission to Translate
Organizations seeking new HealthMeasures translations must obtain a license. The HealthMeasures team manages the translation process, including referral to approved vendors, quality review, and harmonization across languages.

Scoring & Research Tools
HealthMeasures tools are available to support scoring and research applications.
Assessment Center API
The API can be used with standard statistical software packages as a secure scoring engine behind your firewall — ideal when data have already been collected and data privacy is a priority.
Learn more about the API and licensing fees.
Scoring Service
This free web-based tool calculates scores for standard measures and custom short forms.
Access the Scoring Service
Manual Scoring
Free scoring manuals with instructions and scoring tables are available for standard measures when HealthMeasures software tools are not feasible. Custom scoring tables are also available for a fee. HealthMeasures software tools such as the Scoring Service and API use a preferred scoring method that accommodates missing data and produces more precise scores.

Score Interpretation
Multiple free resources are available to support accurate interpretation of scores.

PROsetta Stone®
Free crosswalk tables are available to link legacy measure scores to the PROMIS metric, allowing direct comparison of scores across instruments.

Disseminate Your Measure
Measure developers seeking to disseminate a new measure within the HealthMeasures infrastructure have two options:
Integration into the Assessment Center API
Measures can be added to the Assessment Center API for broad dissemination while remaining under the developer’s stewardship and branding.

Adoption into PROMIS or Neuro-QoL
Measures that fill a gap in an existing HealthMeasures measurement system and meet all scientific standards can be considered for full adoption as an official PROMIS or Neuro-QoL measure, managed and disseminated through HealthMeasures.
