Health Resources & Services Administration/Bureau of Primary Health Care (HRSA/BPHC) encourages health centers to undergo accreditation to support the achievement of national benchmarks and demonstrate the highest standards of health care quality. HRSA/BPHC will cover the cost for 330 funded federally qualified health centers’ (FQHC) to achieve Joint Commission accreditation and Primary Care Medical Home (PCMH) certification.

When you choose to become accredited by ÃÛÌÒÖ±²¥, the nation’s leading performance improvement organization, you:

• Create a structure for standardization across your center reducing unnecessary variation and risk therefore improving patient safety and quality.
• Demonstrate to patients, employees, and the community, that your organization is committed to providing the highest quality services and improving patient experiences.
• Help meet requirements for payers and managed care contractors’ participation agreements.
• Fulfill CODA’s requirement for residency programs, and you will be eligible to receive funding from HRSA.
