NCQA’s Health Plan Accreditation program is the most widely used accreditation program in the country. Currently, 26 Medicaid managed care states require NCQA Health Plan Accreditation for their Medicaid health plans.
The Medicaid Managed Care Final Rule instituted many provisions that worked to strengthen the transparency of information to states, health plans and consumers. Pursuant to the Rule, states are required to obtain information about their Medicaid accredited plans directly from accreditors. So, NCQA made these accreditation reports available to state Medicaid agencies through our my.ncqa.org portal.
NCQA hosted a webinar to explain the purpose of the Medicaid accreditation reports, how to access them through the portal and how to read and use the accreditation results.
