Do Medicaid plans need to submit HEDIS measures even though the NCQA is not releasing Health Plan Ratings for 2020-2021?

Yes. Even though NCQA is not releasing Health Plan Ratings for 2020-2021 due to the COVID-19 Pandemic, accredited commercial and Medicaid plans still need to submit their HEDIS measures to meet their annual reporting requirements. Organizations will not be rated on the measures, but they are still required to submit the required HEDIS measures as usual.
