The National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) has awarded Health Plan of San Joaquin its three-year re-accreditation in the category of Medicaid HMO. NCQA is one of the most comprehensive evaluations in the health insurance industry.
HPSJ Chief Medical Officer Lakshmi Dhanvanthari, MD, said: “Health Plans accredited by NCQA demonstrate their ongoing commitment to delivering high-quality care. NCQA is very member focused and this re-accreditation reaffirms the company wide dedication to serve our members and the community.”
For members of Health Plan of San Joaquin, who mostly are working families and children, as well as seniors and persons with disabilities, this means –
- NCQA has reaffirmed that HPSJ aligns with its Quality standards to increasingly deliver better service, having greater and greater positive impacts on members’ health.
- HPSJ’s diverse membership can rely on their member-friendly, very easy to read communications and the strong member advocacy from their case management team.
- NCQA recognized that HPSJ deploys tech-supported processes to improve the member experience – and that HPSJ will continue to explore and add such technologies, as they benefit members and support the HPSJ provider network.
- Members are choosing quality by choosing HPSJ, their local, home-grown health plan.
