Branford, CT (PRWEB) August 28, 2013

Voyance is delighted to announce the healthcare industry’s 2012/2013 APEX Quality Award Winners. This national distinction recognizes outstanding healthcare organizations that demonstrated the highest level of excellence in patient satisfaction and overall care over the preceding 12 months. Winners are determined solely based on patient feedback and a subset of measures tied exclusively to patient care.

The 2012/2013 APEX Quality Award recognizes 91 healthcare organizations across eight healthcare markets and 29 states. Thirty-nine of the 91 recipients are first-time winners, while 52 have been recognized in one or more prior years. Twelve facilities have the distinction of being recognized for the fifth consecutive year. New categories were introduced for pain management centers and catheterization labs based on Voyance’s expanding client base.

“It is a privilege to share this honor with so many outstanding providers of care,” notes Paul Faraclas, Voyance’s President and Chief Executive Officer. “Recognition is not subjective, but earned. The APEX Quality Award continues to be a healthcare performance differentiator because criteria are restricted to actual care, clinical communication, risk mitigation and patient safety measures. It is clear that the APEX Quality Award winners demonstrate a passion to exceed patient expectations that translate into their everyday actions and priorities.”

Voyance clients all use EdgePerception™, the industry’s leading patient satisfaction and perception management solution. EdgePerception comes standard with Quality Intelligence™, a built-in feature that promotes quality and process improvement through patient issue resolution.
