PLYMOUTH MEETING, Pa., Jan. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Health Advocate, a leading provider of integrated health advocacy and navigation, population health, well-being, behavioral health, and worksite screening programs, announced today that it has received National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) Accreditation for its Population Health Management program.

"Through our unique combination of data-driven proactive outreach and physician-guided, compassionate care coordination, we're able to help members make informed decisions about their health and achieve the best possible outcomes," Leibowitz said. "We're honored to be recognized by NCQA for our efforts to improve quality of care, reduce costs and effectively engage our members in their health and well-being."

"The Population Health Management program moves us in greater alignment with the increased focus on person-centered population health management," said Margaret E. O'Kane, President, NCQA. "Not only does it add value to existing quality improvement efforts, it also demonstrates an organization's highest level of commitment to improving the quality of care that meets people's needs."

Health Advocate's Population Health program leverages AI, predictive modeling, and advanced data analytics to identify high-risk and high-cost claimants and conducts individualized outreach to encourage them to engage with clinical experts who help them close gaps in care. Through personalized care plans, ongoing care coordination and wraparound support, the clinical care team educates, engages, and advocates for the member as long as necessary, for whatever they need.
