Public recognition is an important part of the AMP Core program. Your provider organization’s recognition is tangible evidence of your hard work and commitment to improving care. Each year, we recognize top-performing providers and those demonstrating the greatest year-to-year improvement.

AMP Commercial HMO awards

Top Quality Performers

Our Top Quality award recognizes provider organizations that perform at or above the 90th percentile in the quality domain compared with national benchmarks.

Ronald P. Bangasser, MD, Memorial Recognition for Quality Improvement

Each year, we recognize eight organizations—one from each California region—that demonstrate the greatest year-to-year improvement in clinical quality and patient experience.

Excellence in Healthcare

Our Excellence in Healthcare award recognizes providers who perform in the top 50% in all three AMP measurement areas: clinical quality, patient experience, and cost.

AMP Medi-Cal Managed Care awards

Ronald P. Bangasser, MD, Memorial Recognition for Quality Improvement

Each year, we recognize up to eight organizations in AMP Medi-Cal Managed Care—one from each California region—that demonstrate the greatest year-to-year improvement based on measures of quality.

Excellence in Healthcare

Our Excellence in Healthcare award recognizes providers based on strong performance in both the quality and cost domains. To earn this recognition, provider organizations must rank in the top 50% for quality based on national Medicaid benchmarks and below the median for cost among all AMP Core participating provider organizations for Medi-Cal Managed Care.

AMP Medicare Advantage awards

Medicare Stars Quality

Each year, we recognize provider organizations that perform well by earning an overall Medicare Advantage star rating of 5 or 4.5 stars against national benchmarks established by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) across a set of Part C (Medicare Advantage) and Part D (Prescription Drug Plan) performance measures.

Medicare Stars Quality Improvement

We determine Medicare Stars Quality Improvement recognition by calculating the improvement in the number of overall stars for each provider organization on the overall Medicare Stars score for this year compared to the overall score for last year. The provider organizations that improved by at least 1/2 a star are recognized as the most improved provider organizations in California.
