Recognition for Virginia Flex Program

The Federal Office of Rural Health Policy awarded the Virginia Medicare Rural Hospital Flexibility Grant (Flex) Program with a Medicare Beneficiary Quality Improvement Program (MBQIP) Certificate of Excellence on June 23, 2015, during the "Pathways to Value: 2015 Flex Program Reverse Site Visit" in Bethesda, Md.

 

The award “recognizes the dedication to provide quality care on MBQIP inpatient measures demonstrated in 2014” by Virginia Critical Access Hospitals (CAHs).  “Pathways to Value” was a two-day long event that served as an opportunity for state Flex Program grantees to convene and share information about providing assistance to CAHs as they become top performers in the new value-based reimbursement system.

 

The Virginia Flex Program is in the Virginia State Office of Rural Health in the Office of Minority Health and Health Equity.
