Of the nearly 200 provider organizations statewide participating in the AMP Program, only 27 attained the Excellence in Healthcare Award for 2022, based on AMP results for measurement year 2021.
“We are thrilled to receive this award, once again, for achieving strong quality results and high levels of patient satisfaction, while effectively managing costs,” expressed David Joyner, CEO, HPMG. “Our physicians are passionate about delivering personalized, high-quality care to a diverse group of patients throughout the twelve counties we serve, and we believe our commitment to innovation enables us to continually improve our patients’ healthcare journey.”
IHA’s AMP programs use a fair and transparent approach to measurement and benchmarking to create a reliable assessment of performance for medical groups and independent physician associations across health plans.
