Molina Healthcare Physicians Honored for Diabetes Care

The National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) is a group that helps make medical care better in the United States. They point out doctors who have been shown to give better medical care. NCQA has two programs to review doctors who care for patients who have diabetes or patients with heart problems or strokes. They also have a new program to recognize doctors who use computers to help their patients. These programs are called NCQA Physician Recognition Programs. Doctors can volunteer to have NCQA review their care of patients with these problems. If the doctors give care that meets certain national quality standards, they receive a special award.

Molina Healthcare network physicians David Okubo, MD, and Robert Day, MD, have achieved the NCQA Diabetes Physician Recognition award. Dr. Okubo is a pediatrician in West Jordan. Dr. Day is an internist who practices in Provo. Please join Molina Healthcare in congratulating Dr. Okubo and Dr. Day. Molina Healthcare will continue to let members know as more doctors receive these awards.
