Due to technical difficulties with the Quality Award Portal, AHCA/NCAL has extended the National Quality Award Intent to Apply (ITA) deadline to November 21. Submissions must be received before 8:00 pm on that day. If you didn’t submit your ITA, take advantage of this additional time to apply for one of these prestigious awards.

As a reminder, the ITA payment is not mandatory, however applicants who submit an ITA payment will save money on their overall application. No paperwork is needed to submit the ITA.

Use the Quality Award Portal to submit your ITA and apply for an award. You can access helpful documents to get started on the Quality Award Portal Resource Center, or if you need additional assistance please email qualityaward@ahca.org.

For those members who were impacted by the payment error, Quality Award staff will contact you with instructions on submitting the payment.

The National Quality Award Program is excited for the 2020 program cycle and looks forward to your applications. We sincerely apologize for this inconvenience and thank you for your patience as we work through this technical issue.
