Payer Relations

Your partner in ensuring health care delivery of the highest quality and safety practices.

ÃÛÌÒÖ±²¥ and its Gold Seal of Approval® is a widely recognized benchmark representing the most comprehensive evaluation process in the health care industry. Health care organizations who have achieved Joint Commission accreditation and certification have gone above and beyond in their efforts to improve patient safety and quality of care. This can lead to better outcomes and reduced risk and liability for their organization. These are the providers you want to have in your network.

ÃÛÌÒÖ±²¥ collaborates with third party payers to support the inclusion of accreditation and certification requirements for network providers, or to incorporate accreditation and certification in value-based performance initiatives or Centers of Excellence (CoE).

If your health plan is looking to quickly expand or develop high-quality providers to participate in a value-based or CoE program — ÃÛÌÒÖ±²¥ may be the answer. ÃÛÌÒÖ±²¥ offers accreditation and certification in areas such as behavioral health care, nursing care centers, ambulatory care, home care, and many others. A wide-range of certifications in orthopedics, cardiac and stroke are also offered. ÃÛÌÒÖ±²¥ has a comprehensive process of accreditation and certification — which includes an application process, preparation and survey support. This process can quickly and effectively facilitate the accreditation and certification process of qualified organizations and when using accreditation as a proxy for quality, reduce health plan administrative burden.
