Centene Partners With Behavioral Health Center Of Excellence To Advance Quality In Autism Treatment Outcomes
Centene Corporation partnered with Behavioral Health Center of Excellence (BHCOE), a health care accreditor, to research and advance continuous improvement in autism treatment outcomes. The initiative will focus on assessing applied behavior analysis (ABA) treatment delivery, quality of care, and treatment outcomes. The goal is to support access to quality services for people on the autism spectrum and related developmental disabilities.
This research collaboration will help better assess treatment outcomes and quality of care through formalized measurements of ABA services. These measures will allow benchmarking of national healthcare quality standards for behavioral health that aim to improve quality and efficiency . . .
