Patient Safety

At Community Health Plan, we've put strict measures in place to improve your safety and the competence of the care you get under our plans. These measures include:

  • Guidelines for how to get and give safe care.
  • A pharmacy system that helps identify and prevent dangerous drug interactions.
  • Rigorous evaluation of health care providers to ensure they have the right education, skills, and background.
  • Inspections of clinics, hospitals, and provider offices to ensure safe conditions.
  • Prompt, thorough investigation of member complaints.
  • Continuing improvement of services and systems through our quality improvement programs.
  • Encouragement of both members and providers to join the LeapFrog Initiative, which promotes patient safety. Learn more at www.leapfroggroup.org.
  • Ongoing patient safety education for both members and providers.
  • Providing eligible members with a free bike helmet, health book, and/or car seat as part of the Community Health Plan Children First program.
