UPMC Health Plan contracts with Press Ganey, formerly SPH, to measure provider satisfaction levels and to meet one or more NCQA Health Plan Accreditation Standards. Press Ganey incorporates a percentile ranking to allow health plans to compare performance to a cohort of similar health plans who initiate a provider satisfaction survey.
