Providing you with quality service
Providing you with quality service
Making sure you get the highest quality care when you need it is our goal. We partner with local providers who understand your needs. And the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) continues to accredit us. This is because we score high on:
- Clinical quality surveys
- Member satisfaction surveys
- NCQA surveys
Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS®) scores
We want to improve access to quality health care for our members. You have a large network of providers to help you reach your health goals. This includes:
- Obstetrician/gynecologists (Ob/Gyns)
- Pediatricians
- Top hospitals
- Community groups
HEDIS scores help us make sure we’re meeting our goals. You can see our latest HEDIS results on this page. You can also learn more about HEDIS on the NCQA website.
Member satisfaction surveys
Your answers on our Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (CAHPS®) surveys are private. We use the results to improve the way we take care of our members. You can see our survey results on this page. Or you can contact us to learn more.
Recap of CAHPS results
We work hard to make sure you get the best health care and service. Each year, we look at how well we are doing. We set goals for care and service. If we don’t reach our goals, we make a plan to help us improve and reach our goals in the future.
