The Quality, Research, and Measurement Department, in collaboration with individuals from across the organization, is pleased to announce the launch of an updated Policy and Procedure site on URAC’s Sharepoint environment.

URAC has moved forward in its adoption of Lean Six Sigma with the completion of its first Kaizen Event! A Kaizen Event is a focused improvement project that can be accomplished in a short, dedicated timeframe.  It offers the opportunity for rapid improvement with a focus on identifying and eliminating waste in a process.

The Quality, Research, & Measurement Department, in partnership with Information Technology and Accrediting & Client Services, is pleased to announce the release of an Inter-Rater Reliability application for use in 4th Quarter of this year.

Since its inception, URAC’s focus has been to improve the quality of care provided to patients across the health care continuum.  Continuous quality improvement is a cornerstone of our accreditation programs.
