Wellness & Health Promotion Accreditation:
NCQA's Wellness & Health Promotion Accreditation comprehensively assesses key areas of health promotion, including how wellness programs are implemented in the workplace, how services such as coaching are provided to help participants develop skills to make healthy choices and how individual health information is properly safeguarded.
One of the best ways to differentiate your organization in an emerging market is to participate in NCQA's Wellness & Health Promotion (WHP) standards. NCQA Accreditation sends a clear message to your customers— -- you're eager to show that you meet what industry experts agree are evidence-based, best-in-class standards for evaluating wellness organizations.
What's more, NCQA's standardized measures allow employers and others who contract with organizations that provide health promotion services to make informed comparisons when choosing among several vendors.
