At CareMEDICA, our healthcare providers consistently exceed national benchmarks for quality care. The rising cost of healthcare in the United States has reached crisis proportions, prompting the federal government to launch several initiatives aimed at reducing healthcare costs and improving service quality. These initiatives were formalized in the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 and the Affordable Care Act of 2010.
Recognizing the need for healthcare reform well before government mandates, CareMEDICA embarked on a conversion to electronic medical records in 2007. This early adoption has allowed us to realize the efficiencies and benefits of digital healthcare management. In 2009, our providers were recognized by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) for delivering high-quality care to patients with diabetes and heart disease. The NCQA is renowned in the healthcare industry for its healthcare quality and cost benchmarking systems, such as HEDIS.
Additionally, our CareMEDICA physicians have been acknowledged by the Leading Physicians of the World (LOPTW) for their excellence and dedication to the advancement of medicine. At CareMEDICA, we remain committed to exceeding industry standards and ensuring the best possible care for our patients. We continually strive to innovate and lead in providing high-quality, cost-effective healthcare solutions.
