Church Health has earned the designation of Patient-Centered Medical Home by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA), an independent 501 nonprofit organization that works to improve healthcare quality through the administration of evidence-based standards, measures, programs and accreditation.
Church Health's NCQA designation applies to its clinical and integrated behavioral health programs.
The NCQA Patient-Centered Medical Home program reflects the input of the American College of Physicians (ACP), American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP), American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) and American Osteopathic Association (AOA) and others, and it was developed to assess whether clinician practices are functioning as medical homes and recognize them for these efforts. The NCQA Patient-Centered Medical Home standards emphasize the use of systematic, patient-centered, coordinated care that supports access, communication and patient involvement.
