[{"type":"text","content":"NASHVILLE and WASHINGTON, July 23, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Clover Health (Nasdaq: CLOV) (“Clover”), an innovative technology company committed to improving health equity for America’s underserved seniors, today announced its sponsorship of the 2021 Quality Innovation Series. The National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) is bringing together leaders in healthcare to present the Quality Innovation Series once again. This virtual series will gather leaders who develop measures, write standards and help shape healthcare quality, in an effort to help move healthcare quality and equity forward through seminars, talks and panels. Sessions will include NCQA leadership, health plans, providers and others sharing best practices in healthcare. The Quality Innovation Series kicked off on June 17th and will continue with weekly live sessions through November 18th. NCQA recently informed Clover it is one of a small number of plans identified by CMS’ Office of Minority Health as demonstrating high performance on a prototype of the Medicare Advantage Health Equity Summary Score (HESS), a newly developed measurement tool for identifying plans that do well at providing high-quality, equitable care to their beneficiaries, including groups who are disproportionately affected by social risk factors. “At Clover, we believe that equitable access to consistent and high quality healthcare is a right, not a privilege, and accordingly seek innovative ways to make that access a reality for Medicare eligibles across the country,” said Dr. Kumar Dharmarajan, Associate Chief Medical Officer of Clover Health. “We are excited to support NCQA’s Quality Innovation Series and to work alongside others who are as passionate as we are about combating disparities in the availability and quality of healthcare.” With a goal to democratize access to high-quality, personalized care for Medicare eligibles and lessen health disparities, Clover leverages its clinical support technology, the Clover Assistant, in an effort to provide America’s seniors with highly affordable, benefit-rich, open network Medicare Advantage plans.
