Why is BCBSNC launching the Cardiac Centers of Excellence Program?
BCBSNC recognizes the importance of patient safety and evidence-based medicine in producing the most favorable treatment outcomes for our members. We believe it is important to identify facilities that apply best practices to produce high quality results with lower rates of complications and then help our members make informed choices about where to receive the highest quality cardiac care. Reducing costly complications will not only lead to improved outcomes for patients, but will help lower long-term health care costs for BCBSNC members and employers.
