STQN Names 3Q Award Winners
STQN NAMES 3rd QUARTER MEDICAL DIRECTOR AWARD RECIPIENTS
COVINGTON – Drs. Elizabeth White and Dr. Arlette Delcham have received the St. Tammany Quality Network’s third quarter Medical Director Awards for their outstanding management in providing routine diabetes care and health screenings for nearly 130 St. Tammany Parish Hospital employees and their dependents between January and June.
Both physicians displayed above-average performance for managing patients with elevated blood sugar, cholesterol and blood pressure readings as well as for encouraging their patients to have routine eye exams. Compared to their peers, they also had more patients at risk for breast, colon and cervical cancers undergo preventative screenings.
The Medical Director Award was created in July 2014 to recognize STQN-affiliated physicians who demonstrate innovative leadership, a commitment to quality and a focus on efficiency.
