11.15.2012 Complaints The concept of "member complaints" pertains to health plans only, but not necessarily to Web sites or collaboratives. How does NCQA evaluate for those entities?

Though an organization may not have members in the way a health plan does, Web sites have users or consumers who might want to submit complaints (e.g., user complaints). Therefore, to meet the intent of Elements C and D, an organization must have policies and procedures to process, register and respond to consumer complaints; and must provide a documented process and evidence for how it handled those complaints.
