Coplin Health Systems Earns Quality Recognition Badges from the Health Resources & Services Administration

Coplin Health Systems earned four Community Health Quality Recognition (CHQR) badges from the Department’s Health Resources & Services Administration.

“We are honored to receive recognition as a leader for providing quality care for patients,” said Rob Dudley, CEO of Coplin Health Systems. “We are fortunate to have a team of committed and skilled staff who focus on providing exceptional patient-centered primary and preventive healthcare for all residents in our communities.”

• The Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) Badge recognizes Coplin for creating a dynamic patient experience by using a team of health professionals to address the whole health and wellness needs of their patients.
• The Advancing Health Information Technology (HIT) for Quality Badge recognizes Coplin for offering telehealth services and a secure and protected patient portal for health information.
