Valley Primary Care Clinics Receive Recognition for their Achievement in Diabetes Control

The NCQA Diabetes Recognition Program is a voluntary effort to identify clinicians who provide diabetes care consistent with the comprehensive diabetes care measures within the Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set (HEDIS®). Clinicians who achieve DRP Recognition show their peers, patients and others in the Diabetes community that they are part of an elite group that is publicly recognized for its skill in providing the highest-level diabetes care.

"NCQA's Diabetes Recognition Program honors the vanguard, professionals using the best science to help patients cope with one of modern life's most pervasive illnesses," said NCQA President Margaret E. O'Kane. "I commend UW Medicine/Valley Medical Center Primary Care Clinics for providing high quality care and for going the extra mile to help people with diabetes."
