Best Health awarded NCQA Wellness and Health Promotion Accreditation, again!

Nationally recognized for another three years.


seal-ncqa-accreditedSharp Health Plan is proud to announce that it has once again been awarded the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) Wellness and Health Promotion (WHP) Accreditation for its Best Health® wellness program.

The NCQA WHP Accreditation is a nationally recognized evaluation that consumers can use to assess the quality of wellness and health promotion programs.

Originally accredited in 2012, Sharp Health Plan’s renewed 3-year WHP Accreditation is a testament to its Best Health wellness program, which remains an industry-leading wellness program that consistently demonstrates its ability to effectively engage members in improving their health.

“We are extremely proud to have earned this highly coveted NCQA Accreditation again,” said Michael Byrd, vice president and chief business development officer at Sharp Health Plan. “This accreditation is an affirmation to our clients that Best Health meets and exceeds the highest evidence-based standards for wellness and health promotion. It’s also a tribute to the hard work and dedication of everyone on our Best Health team.”

This prestigious accreditation is only given to a select group of wellness programs nationwide. According to NCQA, their standards are purposely set high to encourage wellness and health promotion organizations for continuous enhancement of their quality. No comparable evaluation exists for wellness and health promotion programs. The standards are intended to help organizations achieve the highest level of performance possible, increase healthy behavior change in eligible individuals and create an environment of continuous improvement.
