CIMRO was awarded full accreditation by URAC as an Independent Review Organization in 2009, one of less than 50 nationwide to achieve that distinction.

CIMRO was accredited in Health Utilization Management by URAC from 1999 to 2009. Just over 200 organizations nationwide, and only 14 Quality Improvement Organizations (QIOs), have earned this honor.

URAC accreditation is a rigorous process and establishes CIMRO as an organization that has the necessary infrastructure and processes to promote high quality health care and patient rights. It also demonstrates CIMRO's willingness to be measured against nationally accepted benchmarks. All CIMRO reviewers must meet strict credentialing standards as well as receive orientation and training in URAC standards and utilization management processes and procedures.

Alan P. Spielman, URAC President and CEO, said, "By applying for and receiving URAC accreditation, CIMRO has demonstrated a commitment to quality health care. Quality health care is crucial to our nation's welfare and it is important to have organizations that are willing to measure themselves against national standards."
