National Committee for Quality Assurance

The National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) is an independent nonprofit and a national leader in health care accreditation and quality measurement. State and federal regulators recognize NCQA’s programs as setting the bar for high-quality health care across Medicaid, Medicare and commercial plans. Our programs help organizations meet regulatory requirements while advancing smarter, more effective care delivery and high-quality behavioral health. From foundational research and framework development to our new Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics (CCBHC) Accreditation program, NCQA supports innovation across the behavioral health continuum. We believe high-quality care is essential to improving health outcomes for all Americans, and NCQA is uniquely positioned to support critical advancements in this space.
