Our Approach to Quality
At URAC, quality isn’t just a box to check. It’s the foundation of everything we do and have done for 35 years. As a complete health care accreditor, we offer programs tailored to the diverse needs of today’s health care organizations, but we’re not here to tell you how to run your organization. We’re here to partner with you.
Hear from some of our clients about how our approach helped their organizations.


Built for All of Health Care
URAC sets rigorous, meaningful standards that reflect what quality looks like in health care for today and the future. Our standards help organizations elevate their performance.
“URAC accreditation is more than a seal, it’s a commitment to continuous quality improvement that raises the standard of care. We measure what matters in health care to help organizations deliver safer, more effective care every day.”
— Shawn Griffin, MD, President and CEO, URAC
Growth Through Partnership
Real quality improvement happens when organizations are empowered to reflect, adapt and evolve. our programs start with:

- Flexibility: Recognizes strengths and needs of each organization.
- Trust: Builds long-term relationships to support ongoing excellence.
When you work with URAC, you’re committing your to better care, stronger systems and healthier outcomes.
Accreditation Is All We Do
We’re not a consulting firm. We don’t sell solutions. We’re 100% focused on accreditation. Our reviewers don’t come in with a clipboard and a script. They come in ready to listen and learn through our education and collaborative approach because we understand that excellence doesn’t look the same in every organization.
