The URAC accreditation process demonstrates a commitment to quality services and serves as a framework to improve business processes through benchmarking organizations against nationally recognized standards. The Health Call Center Accreditation assures that registered nurses, physicians or other validly licensed individuals perform the clinical aspects of triage and other health information services in a manner that is timely, confidential, and includes medically appropriate care and treatment advice.

"We are proud to once again receive URAC Accreditation, which validates our long-standing dedication to provide quality healthcare service and programs to those we serve," said Kimberly D. Tuck, RN, Chief Executive Officer of Nurse Response. "We believe that by providing knowledge and tools, we can improve health care access and empower those we serve to make the best decisions for their health needs."

"By applying for and receiving URAC Accreditation, Nurse Response has demonstrated a commitment to quality health care," said William Vandervennet, URAC president and CEO. "Quality health care is crucial to our nation's welfare and it is important to have organizations that are willing to measure themselves against national standards."
