Get Started – Physician and Hospital Quality Certification

Health plans increasingly use physician quality information for value-based contracting, pay-for-performance programs, provider networks, physician tiering and more. As payers make more decisions using this data, it is important that the methodology used for quality measurement is sound.

NCQA’s Physician and Hospital Quality (PHQ) Certification program evaluates how well health plans measure and report the quality and cost of physicians and hospitals.

• Improve Your Process: NCQA standards help you implement standardized industry best practices across your organization, setting clear policies and procedures and level-setting expectations of how the organization should operate.
• Validate Your Methodology: Accuracy is vital for a successful physician quality measurement program. This certification helps you validate that your methodology is sound and you are making decisions based on proper measurement.
• Become a Trusted Partner: By earning certification, you show contracting partners and state regulators that you are a market leader and can be trusted in the measurement you use for physician quality programs.
