The American Board of Quality Assurance and Utilization Review Physicians (ABQAURP) Provides a Certification to Validate and Differentiate Today's Health Care Quality and Safety Professionals
TAMPA, Fla., Jan. 27, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The importance of health care quality and patient safety continues to be at the forefront of providing medical care. It is essential that health care providers and administrators demonstrate their expertise and commitment to health care quality and safety. In addition to concerns about patient safety, inappropriate services, and unnecessary readmissions, the rising costs of health care and its impact on families and business all solidify the need for Health Care Quality and Management (HCQM) Certification.
ABQAURP has chosen Prometric as its new test development and delivery partner for its HCQM Certification Exam. Prometric will work with ABQAURP to deliver secure, high-quality exams to health care professionals through Prometric's global test center network and remote assessment platform, ProProctor™.
