While the company has been recognized by the National Committee for Quality Assurance as a Medicaid Managed Behavioral Health Organization accredited organization since 2010, but they recently announced a further distinction from the NCQA at the end of 2018. This announcement included the fact that they had been named as a company with the distinction for Long Term Services and Supports.
This accomplishment by Cardinal Innovations makes the first in their industry in North Carolina to receive both distinctions at the same time. The company has always expressed its commitment to improving its members’ access to the mental and physical health care that they need and this accomplishment is a testament to their efforts. Margaret O’Kane, the current President of the NCQA expressed that the accreditation that the insurance provider received is proof that they can provide the access and support for their members and work hard to be able to do so. Behavioral Health is very important for the well being of their members overall and itis important to ensure that enough resources are dedicated to ensuring that they are able to access quality mental health care that fits their needs.
NCQA was established as a nonprofit organization that focused on the task of improving the quality of health care that is provided to people across the United States. Through their work, they accredit many different types of health care organizations including those like Cardinal Innovations. In addition to organizations, they also accredit practices and individual physicians for their achievements and dedication to quality in health care. Their performance measurement tool known as HEDIS is more widely used than any other system. The organization’s website features information that aims to help employers, consumers, and other people that need to make informed choices about their health care. The notoriety of the NCQA is one of the reasons why Cardinal Innovations was so honored to receive these distinctions.
