MHCA has been accredited by URAC (American Accreditation Health Care Commission) since 2000 for "Health Network with Credentialing" and since 2005 for "Utilization Management." URAC's mission is,

"To promote continuous improvement in the quality and efficiency of health care delivery by achieving a common understanding of excellence among purchasers, providers, and patients through the establishment of standards, programs of education and communication, and a process of accreditation."

To achieve this goal, URAC's accreditation process is designed to ensure that managed care organizations, as well as other types of organizations, have addressed the issue of quality in both their structure and operations. Patients, physicians, employers, regulators, and other health care stakeholders can be confident that an URAC-accredited organization has demonstrated the ability to provide high quality services. The fact URAC has become a nationally recognized quality improvement leader and is one of the fastest growing health care accreditation agencies in the world are indications of URAC's commitment to quality and accountability through accreditation. The network's URAC accreditation complements the standards of care and quality improvement processes. For more information on URAC please visit their website at www.urac.org.
