Charlotte, NC, June 18, 2024 — Contigo Health, a distinguished provider of health plan benefits solutions, proudly announces its achievement of a three-year accreditation from the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) for its Case Management program, which is a fundamental part of Contigo Health® Sync Health Plan TPA (Third-Party Administration). This notable accreditation underscores Contigo Health’s commitment to excellence, innovation, and superior care coordination in the healthcare industry.
NCQA Accreditation standards are developed with input from researchers in the field, the Case Management Expert Panel and standing committees, employers, both purchasers and operators of Case Management Programs, state and federal regulators and other experts.
“Case Management Accreditation moves us closer to measuring quality across population health management initiatives,” said Margaret E. O’Kane, President, NCQA. “Not only does it add value to existing quality improvement efforts; it also demonstrates an organization’s commitment to the highest degree of improving the quality of their patients’ care.”
NCQA Accreditation standards are intended to help organizations achieve the highest level of performance possible and create an environment of continuous improvement.
“This important recognition reflects the unwavering commitment to quality and meticulous attention to detail of Contigo Health’s talented teams. It’s a testament to the clinical expertise and compassion that our 50+ nurses and dedicated staff bring to work each day as they serve our members with skill and heart.
