NCQA is more focused on health plans, not subacute care.

I think it's the Joint Commission (JCAHO).

I think FACCT is more about accountability and outcomes rather than direct accreditation, so I’m thinking it’s between JCAHO and URAC.

I vaguely recall that JCAHO is a big name in healthcare accreditation, but I’m not 100% sure if they cover subacute care specifically.

I’m not entirely sure, but I feel like URAC might be involved in accreditation too. Didn’t we cover something about them in class?

I think I remember that NCQA focuses more on health plans rather than specific providers, so I’m leaning towards JCAHO for this one.
