ALBANY, NY / ACCESSWIRE / September 18, 2023 / Once again this year, CDPHP has some of the highest-rated commercial health plans in the nation, according to recent NCQA Health Plan Ratings.
'Despite the massive upheaval the health care industry has faced over the last several years, the fact that CDPHP has yet again been named among the highest-rated plans in New York state and the nation by NCQA, one of the most well-respected health care quality organizations in the U.S., is a testament to our valued employees and our loyal membership,' said John D. Bennett, MD, president and CEO, CDPHP. 'I highly encourage anyone shopping for health care coverage this fall to do your research, compare plan benefits and extras, and keep these ratings in mind,' added Bennett.
NCQA rates plans on a scale of 1 to 5, where 5 is the highest score and 1 is the lowest. Plans were scored on patient experience, prevention, and treatment, as well as NCQA Accreditation.
Below is a breakdown of how commercial CDPHP plans are rated for 2023*:
CDPHP will complement our award-winning plans with the following member-focused enhancements for 2024:

There will be no member cost-share for Tier 1 drugs in the preferred network for members under the age of 19.
