Earlier this year, the Health Resources and Services Administration and the Bureau of Primary Health Care rolled out 2023 Community Health Quality Recognition Badges.
These badges, according to HRSA, “recognize Health Center Program awardees and look-alikes that have made notable quality improvement achievements in the areas of access, quality, health equity, health information technology, and COVID-19 public health emergency response for the most recent Uniform Data System (UDS) reporting period.”
Despite the challenging years of a global pandemic, these awards mark improvement over the previous year and are clear indications that we are moving in the right direction in key clinical and operational areas. Thanks to the Quality and Health Informatics teams for keeping the agency focused on these important goals—and to our entire staff for working every day to promote access to care and improve health and well-being.
