Giving Clients Confidence with URAC Re-Accreditation

Proving MTM Health’s commitment to quality, URAC recently re-accredited MTM Health under its Core standards. URAC, a nationally recognized accrediting organization, promotes healthcare quality through its certification programs. MTM Health’s Core standards certification is the foundation of URAC accreditation. These standards address key healthcare organizational functions, including structure; staff qualifications; training and management; oversight of delegated activities; quality management; and consumer protection.

URAC’s standards keep pace with the rapid changes in the healthcare system and provide a mark of distinction for organizations to demonstrate their dedication to quality and accountability. For those companies with URAC certification, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) bestows greater confidence and requires less oversight for clients, assuring clients of MTM Health’s ability to meet ongoing goals. MTM Health was originally accredited under the Core standards in 2010. The new accreditation will be valid until 2016.

“By once again applying for and receiving Core standards accreditation, MTM Health has demonstrated a commitment to quality health care,” said Alan P. Spielman, URAC President and CEO. “Quality health care is crucial to our nation’s welfare and it is important to have organizations that are willing to measure themselves against national standards.”
