UnitedHealthcare Community Plan of D.C. has earned the Long-Term Services and Supports (LTSS) Distinction by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA). NCQA is a private, non-profit organization dedicated to improving health care quality.

NCQA’s LTSS Distinction offers a person-centered, comprehensive and standardized evaluation of organizations responsible for delivering managed long-term services and supports. LTSS Distinction is specifically designed for organizations that coordinate both medical care and LTSS for their members. Achieving this distinction strengthens operational efficiency; enhances communication among individuals, caregivers, providers and payers; and reduces errors and unnecessary duplication of services.

“We are honored to be recognized with the NCQA LTSS Distinction,” said Kathlyn Wee, CEO of UnitedHealthcare Community Plan of Maryland and D.C. “This distinction reflects our continued leadership in delivering high-quality healthcare and improved member outcomes among the District’s long-term care populations.”
