NCQA

The National Committee on Quality Assurance (NCQA) evaluates and awards Medical Home Recognition to practices when they meet its stringent guidelines. We are proud to have achieved NCQA's highest level of accreditation, Level III.

"Patient Centered Medical Home facilitates partnerships between individual patients, and their provider, and when appropriate, the patient's family. Care is facilitated by registries, information technology, health information exchange and other means to assure that patients get the indicated care when and where they need and want it in a culturally and linguistically appropriate manner."
