We believe the underlying objective assessment and associated metrics provide a measurement of excellence and trust for our community, patients, and providers we serve. In addition, achieving this high honor is a testament of the commitment and compassion of our clinical care team, providers, and our entire support team who refused to waiver or accept less for our patients’ outcomes, quality of care, and experience delivered to all our patients.”
