Committed to improving the health outcomes of the diverse San Francisco communities.

SFHP’s Medicaid (Medi-Cal) HMO line of business has earned “Accredited” status from the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA). Also, for the first time ever, SFHP is officially an NCQA Health Equity Accredited plan.

NCQA Health Plan Accreditation evaluates how well a health plan manages all parts of its delivery system – physicians, hospitals, other providers and administrative services – in order to continuously improve the quality of care and services provided to its members. NCQA’s Health Equity Accreditation evaluates how well an organization complies with standards in the following areas: organizational readiness; race/ethnicity, language, gender identify and sexual orientation; access and availability of language services; practitioner network cultural responsiveness; culturally and linguistically appropriate services programs; and reducing health care disparities.

This achievement acknowledges both the quality of care that SFHP provides its members working alongside our network of providers, as well as the hard work of our dedicated staff to attain this level of national recognition.

These awards reinforce the strategic direction set forth by our Governing Board and the commitment to our mission to improve health outcomes of the diverse San Francisco communities through successful partnerships.
